Shared Living
In the Shared Living Model (also known as Professional Family Teaching Model), an individual lives with a carefully screened and trained host family in a nurturing home environment. This arrangement is similar to a private home experience to provide an individual with the most independence and best quality of life.

Family Teaching
The Family Teaching Model uses a range of staffing strategies to accommodate the various support needs of people who live in the home. Most Family Teaching Model residences are duplexes where individuals with disabilities live on one side, and the Family Teacher lives on the other.

"As Tom got older, his behaviors and needs reached a point where Trip and I knew we were not able to provide him care at the level he needed to live his best life...While it’s hard some days to think that our son does not live with us, it’s a comfort for Trip and I to know that we made the best decision for his future while we can. We know that Tom is in a stable home and well-cared for, and if or when anything happens to us, that won’t change.
