Whether it's a stand-alone home, condominium or staffed apartment, each TILL home is beautiful, comfortable and well maintained—a place that any one of us would be proud to call home. Residents and families, when appropriate, are involved in decorating individual bedrooms with their personal touches. Common areas are designed to be open and inviting, while meeting the individual needs of each resident. This can mean roll-in showers, modified sinks and counters or overhead ceiling mounted track lifts. But it most certainly means a comfortable place to relax and connect with fellow residents and a place that allows you access in the home and community. View some of the examples of our homes, ones that we have built specifically for individuals and others that have been renovated to accommodate specialized needs. They all have one thing in common, they are part of the community in which they are located.

Residents are involved in designing their own plan through Individual Service Plans (ISPs) that match their personality, abilities and goals. Trained Residential Support Professionals manage the house and activities as residents handle their banking, budgeting, and community life skills. We encourage family involvement in this process as well as participation from a team of specialists as needed including behavioral, nursing, recreation, speech, occupational and physical therapists.

TILL is committed to implementing our belief that key to living well is maintaining an active lifestyle and remaining energized through maintaining the desire to learn about new places, things and people. TILL is well known for its unique and exciting recreation activities. April Madness and TILL Games are just two examples of the innovative events enjoyed by the individuals and families who participate in and revel in them throughout each year. TILL's Community Connections department provides assistance to staff and residents in developing meaningful relationships, and encourage ideas, then finding and accessing those preferred activities. Interests and relationships are as unique as a fingerprint. Whether attending family barbecues, teas and picnics; or participating in community social services such as stocking food banks, preparing packages for soldiers, donating to animal shelters and walking to raise funds for charity; the essential thing is that the choice is one which involves the individual.

Many of our residences are located near public transportation to allow for easy access for daily needs such as shopping and recreation. Most group homes have cars or vans to assist with daily transportation and life needs such as shopping and recreation. Homes are well maintained by a professional crew of Property Managers and staff who update and decorate the homes together with the residents' input.
