HOUSING
ACI provides exceptional options for housing including:
- Group Homes
- In-Home Support
- Single Community-Integrated Apartments
ACI sees the value in community integration and provides small group homes for our clients. Our group homes are dispersed within Newport city limits. These homes are residential houses and support up to four clients. Depending on the client’s abilities and desires of the family, full or part-time staff supervision is provided. The staff members provide assistance with everyday tasks and serves as level of safety of security for the residents.
The staff members encourage the residents to be a part of the community. Some residents join community organizations or church families. The in-house staff can also manage medication reminders.
For our ‘In-Home Support,’ we work with families that choose to keep their loved ones at home by providing support and services based upon the client’s needs.
