This program requires that residents be independent in all aspects of daily living skills and self-care.  Many residents have community providers for case management, clinical treatment if needed, employment services, and medical treatment.  There is an expectation that each resident be involved in some area of personal or professional growth that will prepare them to obtain their own apartment.  Length of stay is variable and based on both interest and readiness on the part of the resident to obtain their own apartment. The average length of stay is 4-5 years.
