The goal of our Supportive Housing Services is to maintain the clients in an Independent setting that he/she can call home, to avoid placement in a ‘Group Home’ environment; as an alternative to Adult Foster Care or a Room and Board situation. This goal is accomplished by identifying the client’s natural support system and strengthening it wherever possible. We take pride in the role we play; in helping people to lead fulfilling lives. We strive to make a difference!
