Group Homes, Intellectual Disabilities

Mount Rogers Community Services Board offers group homes for individuals with intellectual or developmental disabilities. Group homes provide congregate living arrangements to a small group of adults with recognized developmental disabilities. Consumers receive primary care, which is comprised of a room, board, and general supervision. In addition, they receive assistance training, and specialized supervision according to their individual support needs and preferences. Each resident is encouraged to be as independent as possible with daily living activities, hopefully, to achieve an improved quality of life through integration in community activities.
