#117: Exploring 3 Alternatives to Group Homes for Adults with a Disability


Listen Later

In this episode, I share the story of my sister Sarah and how we found better alternatives to group homes that gave her a life of independence, dignity, and joy. Many families feel forced to accept group home placements, but there are real options that offer more privacy, control, and community connection.

 

What you’ll discover:

- What group homes are and why they may not suit everyone

- The ins and outs of Supported Independent Living and Shared Living

- How creating a customized home can transform lives

- Practical steps to begin planning for a better future

 

Deciding where and how your loved one lives is one of the most important choices you’ll make. Learning about these alternatives empowers you to make intentional decisions that lead to meaningful, secure, and fulfilling futures.
