Community Alternatives Unlimided is the first case management agency in Illinois that provides independent case management services to individuals with a wide range of disabilities, including developmental disabilities, mental health needs, hearing, visual and physical impairments.

Case management is a service. This direct service provides assistance to people with developmental disabilities and people with mental disabilities. The goal of case management is to link a consumer with the services he or she needs. Case management aims to minimize the feeling that he or she is being shuffled around, waiting in the wrong line, or being caught in "red tape." Case management exists with a wide variety of organizations. Fundamentally, it is a collaborative process that attempts to achieve multiple outcomes, including quality care, cost containment and consumer empowerment.
