What Is a Host Home?
A Host Home is a private home where an adult with a disability lives with an individual or family who provides day-to-day support, connection, and stability.
This is not foster care, and it is not shift work.
It is a lifestyle match built on shared life and support
- A shared home environment
- A long-term, stable living option
- A partnership with a support team
- Careful matching, no random placement
- A way to earn income while making a difference
Host Home Providers receive:
- Initial and ongoing training
- Dedicated support team
- 24/7 on-call assistance
- Backup support when needed

Host Home Providers receive a monthly stipend and room and board reimbursement to support the shared living arrangement.
