Host Homes

Nurturing caregivers help individuals thrive and be part of the community

In Sevita’s host homes, adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their caregivers become family.

We all want to belong. We all want the support of family and friends encouraging us. That’s just what the people we serve have in our homes – loving homes and supportive caregivers who help the individuals we serve as they grow and thrive.

Host home providers change lives by supporting the people they serve to be more independent, explore interests, and reach personal goals. They’re advocates, teachers, friends, and family. Our team and caregivers support individuals in building skills and positive relationships needed to live more independent lives.


Lasting relationships

To match individuals with the right caregiver and family home, our team members consider people’s interests, skills, lifestyles, needs, and personalities. Then, we find the person that can support the individual in their family home. These matches can lead to meaningful, lasting relationships. Because that’s what makes the difference in someone’s life.
