Supports Intensity Scale (SIS)

The Supports Intensity Scale – A (SIS-A) is a tool that is used to measure supports required for individuals, aged 16 years and older, with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The assessment is done during an interview with individuals and the people who know them well.

Rhode Island uses the SIS-A to determine service needs and related levels of funding for individuals receiving developmental disabilities services.
