BRBH provides residential support in various group homes and Host Home sponsored placements. The agency has over 35 years of experience providing an array of community-based residential support that includes group homes and sponsored family placements for persons with intellectual disability. Support and supervision are available to enable individuals to acquire, maintain, or improve their health, development, and physical condition. An emphasis is placed on a person-centered approach that empowers and assists each individual in developing his or her own lifestyle.
Occasionally we have a vacancy in one of our group homes that allow us to offer a supported living opportunity to other individuals from our community. If interested in our Community Living residences, please contact Nancy Hunter at (540) 353-8130. In addition, we also offer Host Homes, a sponsored placement option with a contracted provider who offers individuals in need an option to live in their family home. If you have an interest in Host Home services, or would like to find out more about providing residential supports in your own home, contact Pam Adams at 540-266-9200, Extension 3433, or refer to our "New and Noteworthy" page for current opportunities.
