Explore Congregate Living with AbleLight
AbleLight has been providing congregate living (also called residential housing or group homes) support for people with developmental disabilities since the day we first opened our doors in 1904. That’s because having a safe and loving home is a necessary foundation in order to thrive.
What your loved one will find in our congregate living group homes

We empower people with disabilities in all areas of their lives, from the way they decorate their room to how they spend their time.
