STEPS TO INDEPENDENCE

Village at Stoney Glen provides independent living opportunities in a beautiful residential setting for adults with disabilities. It is designed for individuals who are taking a major step on the road to independence, moving out of their family home for the first time.  The staff offers support and training in a home-like setting to individuals who have basic self-care skills. Family interaction and participation are welcomed as our residents transition from the family home to greater independence while continuing to live, work, and worship in their own community.

Whether an individual is leaving home for the first time or has lived away from home in the past, Stoney Glen residents are given the proper balance of structure and assistance necessary to help them reach their goals of more independent living.
