Everyone deserves decent, safe and affordable housing.
Independent living can create a feeling of self-confidence and self-reliance.

This includes community-based, licensed Residential Treatment Facilities which provide residential care in both group home and supervised apartment environments. Group homes have caring, family-like atmospheres where residents build skills, develop relationships and learn to manage symptoms.
