About Support One
Our Origin Story
In the mid-1990’s, a group of like-minded citizens, all friends and family of adults with intellectual disabilities, gathered to develop ways to increase the choice of residential supports for their loved ones.
Out of this vision, Community-Based Services, Inc. was born. Our name was changed to SupportOne, Inc. in 2008 to better reflect the organization’s commitment to providing “person-centered” services to individuals with intellectual disabilities.

Fast Facts
To promote independence for adults living with intellectual and developmental disabilities through “person-centered” supports and services.
Support One was established in 1998 by a small group of parents of disabled adults from Henrico County, who saw a great need for quality residential services for individuals with intellectual disabilities.
Celebrating 27 years of service, Support One nourishes the lives of our residents by providing services around the clock, seven days a week.
We’re an extended family providing all the support our individuals need to live independently.
Support One empowers adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities to make their own choices, build skills, and live as independently as possible, with the support they need. We focus on ability, not limitation.
