Narrative

Adult Family Care operates from the idea that people thrive and grow to meet their maximum potential for independent, fulfilled lives. They can have strong, ongoing personal relationships, access to community activities and individualized care that matches their unique needs and capabilities.

Adult Family Care is a residential option for people who cannot safely live alone, but don't require the level of support typical of group residences.

In 2007, regulations changed so that people who qualify for the Adult Family Care program may remain at home with their family members.  Family members provide, in the privacy and comfort of their home, everyday care and support.

Other Adult Family Care adults may choose to move into the home of a host family.
