Narrative

Leander House, Inc. is a private not-for-profit organization founded in 1996. We are licensed and certified by the Department of Developmental Services (DDS) in Massachusetts. Nestled in the heart of the Southern Berkshires in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, we currently have two homes serving adults with intellectual disabilities. Each home is shared by the host family or house manager, 3 adults with developmental disabilities and 1-2 full-time volunteer live-in intern(s). We also support one person who lives with his family.

We are committed to helping people with disabilities be the best they can be. They can reach their full potential. People can be responsible and valued citizens in their home and community.
