Adult residential care in a family home
Through our Family Model Program, caring and compassionate host families open their private, single-family homes to provide full-time residential care, including room and board. Our Family Model Program is essentially a form of adult foster care.
It is for seniors and adults with physical, intellectual and developmental disabilities who are not able to live by themselves but would prefer to live with a host family in a private home. One to three adults live together with a caring family in a warm family environment.
