Community Residential Homes

"Home" is More Than a House. Each group home is more than a building; it is truly a "home" for the people who live there. A group home is different from the traditional "institution", where people are given few personal choices. In a group home, choices are the rule, not the exception. The people served by Attain, Inc. go about their lives in much the same way as most people in the general public, deciding for themselves what to wear, where to go, and which activities and interests to pursue. Members of the staff of each home provide the support necessary to make these choices achievable.

Each home is as unique as the people who live there. Attain, Inc. typically supports 5 to 6 individuals per home. Typically, homes They are located in quiet neighborhoods south of downtown Orlando. All of them have one thing in common, however: they provide a comfortable, safe, and enjoyable place that the people we serve can truly call "home".
