Narrative

The Shared Living model allows us to help see the best match that meets the needs, values, and vision of the people, the guardian, and that of the provider family. We are committed to finding a match that works for every party involved.

The beauty of Shared Living is that it leaves so much room for growth. People have the support needed to potentially take the next steps to independent living. The placement can become permanent. Once you invite someone into your family, it’s hard to say goodbye. We have even seen temporary arrangements lead to talks of adoption!
