Narrative

The SxS Residential Program offers a unique alternative to the group home setting. Residents live in their own studio or one-bedroom apartment.

SxS is located in the Coolidge Corner neighborhood of Brookline, Massachusetts. We run several apartments in a 50-unit historic building on Beacon Street. We have:

  • modern amenities (options)
  • accessible public transportation
  • local grocery stores
  • pharmacies (drug stores)
  • restaurants
  • recreation sites
  • other needed supports

within walking distance.

People live in their own studio or one-bedroom apartments. Our clinical offices are located on the ground floor of the same building. This allows for a setting where people can continue to develop their independent living skills. They get help  and have access to clinical supports. We are staffed 7 days per week. We offer 24/7 on-call support for emergencies.
