About Our Homestead
“Who will care for our loved ones when we no longer can?”
Our Homestead was founded by a group of parents who share a common concern: the future well-being and independence of their adult children with developmental disabilities. These five families, each with an adult child facing unique challenges, recognized the urgent need for sustainable, community-based housing solutions that would endure beyond their own ability to provide care.
The founding team brings a wealth of personal and professional experience to the organization. Several members have backgrounds in social work, education, nonprofit management, and advocacy for individuals with disabilities.
This diverse and deeply invested leadership team ensures that Our Homestead’s work is informed by lived experience, professional expertise, and a steadfast commitment to the rights and aspirations of adults with developmental disabilities.
Our Vision
Our Homestead’s central initiative is the creation of a long-term, community-based residence for adults with developmental disabilities. The envisioned housing model is designed to balance individual autonomy with shared community life, providing each resident with their own private space while fostering opportunities for socialization, vocational engagement, and recreational activities.
The organization’s approach is informed by best practices in supportive housing, emphasizing universal design, accessibility, and integration with local services and amenities.
