Residential Community Homes
Residential community homes provide service and support to individuals in our homes and community to help them achieve greater independence, learn new skills, maintain old skills and to have experiences for a fuller, richer life. From attending day services to shopping and dining out in the community our individuals enjoy many new experiences as well as familiar day-to-day routine activities.

Referral Process:
The agency’s two group homes serve individuals aged 16 years or older with significant developmental disabilities. When an opening occurs, the agency contacts the Erie County Department of Human Services and Erie County Care Management (ECCM) to inform them of the opening. It is the role of ECCM to review a list of individuals whose eligibility has already been established and who are seeking a group home living situation. ECCM identifies an individual whose needs could be met by the group home. ECCM sends supporting documentation regarding the identified individual to the agency group home director, who reviews it to determine if the individual is appropriate for the vacancy in terms of living space, anticipated compatibility with other resident needs and staffing.
