Adult Residential Programs

Villa Esperanza Services is committed to providing individualized, accessible, affordable housing for those with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Through Villa’s various levels of support and assistance, individuals are reaching their greatest level of independence; living, working, playing and being active in their community.

In all of Villa’s homes we practice a person-centered approach, providing residents with enriching social and community activities and educational opportunities, to nurture and promote individual choice.

Each intimate home setting has qualified trained staff assisting residents in all areas of living, such as:

• Independent living resources and transitional support
• Home and community safety training
• Budgeting and money management
• Food, nutrition and meal preparation training
• Public transportation resources and travel training
• Socialization and communication skill-building
• Housekeeping and personal hygiene support

Villa’s residential program includes nine group homes and six independent living apartments. Villa also offers an Independent Living Skills (ILS) Program for individuals living independently who need ongoing support.
