Our Mission
Our Core Values
Dignity
We believe every individual deserves to live in an environment where they are valued and treated with respect.
Independence
We believe individuals are the best experts on their individual needs and therefore have the right to choose the living environment that is best suited for them.
Security
We believe that individuals should not live with the fear of losing the home they have created for themselves due to influences beyond their control.
Community
We believe that self-worth and purpose are created in fellowship with other human beings.
Our Unique Approach
After researching a variety of housing initiatives, we discovered that there was a unique connection between senior citizens and adults with intellectual disabilities when it came to their housing needs. Both groups generally seek a safe and fulfilling environment while also enjoying the independence and peace of mind that comes with homeownership. Our homes will be built around the idea that everyone deserves to own their own home and live a fulfilling life.

"Many autistic people, given the right support, live full and satisfying lives. Unfortunately, such support is often lacking, and many autistic adults struggle to find sustainable employment and housing."

"The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned"
