This is a chance to help make a difference by opening your home to an individual with a developmental disability.
A Host Home Provider offers a community-based living alternative where individuals or families open their homes to people with developmental disabilities who qualify for services. Teaching, assisting in personal and professional growth, and providing recreation opportunities are additional responsibilities of becoming a home provider. Pay is based on the supported person’s level of need. Community Options will provide training.
A Host Home is more than just another housing option. The home’s primary caregiver provides training, assistance, and supervision. Support can range from community integration to daily living skills, such as personal hygiene, food preparation, and instruction on social skills and problem solving.

Community Options develops specialized housing and supportive services to meet the needs of individuals with disabilities. We buy, build, renovate, and furnish the kind of homes that we want for our own families. We promote individualized ownership and empower those we serve to choose the setting that best meets their needs.
We provide community-based residences in safe and attractive neighborhoods and communities. Many of our residences are barrier-free ranch homes with two to four bedrooms. Individuals living in these homes receive 24/7 direct support care from highly trained staff who understand the individual’s Habilitation or Support Plan.
