*To be eligible for SVILC services, you must be drug/alcohol free for a minimum of six months. If you are currently involved in a recovery program, proof of participation is required.
:: Application Process ::
How do I apply for SVILC services? It's easy. You need to call 408.894.9041 (voice) or 408.894.9012 (TTY) and ask for "intake services." Individuals must self-initiate the request for services; those unable to do so may request services through a chosen representative. The Intake Coordinator will set up an appointment with you.
Does it cost anything? Yes, there is a one-time application fee of $5 - $10. If you can not afford the intake fee, special arrangements can be made. No one is ever denied service based on inability to pay.
What happens next? You will complete a 45 - 60 minute intake appointment and learn about the services and opportunities at SVILC. The staff at SVILC will work with you to create a program that meets your personal needs and goals. Occasionally, staff or budget constraints may create the need for waiting lists, especially in the case of very popular services. SVILC staff members will do their best to provide you with timely access to services.
What if I don't qualify? If you are a person who lives in Santa Clara County and has a disability, which results in a barrier to independent living, you should be eligible for services. *
