Providing support to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities exclusively in their own homes or apartments, regardless of how complex their disabilities may be.

What Makes Hope House Different?

Hope House Foundation, a 501(c)3 organization, provides services to adults with developmental disabilities exclusively in their own homes or apartments — regardless of how complex their disabilities may be.

Skeptical? Initially, many parents and family members of the over 120 people Hope House supports were, too. Their children had aged out of Hampton Roads’ special education system, and were ready for adult services and support. Many worried that cognitive limitations, medical challenges, behavioral issues, or other conditions, such as autism, would make it impossible for their loved ones to live safely in their own apartments.

But talk to those people today, and they’ll tell you how their children have not just succeeded, but blossomed. That’s because Hope House offers more than a safe and secure environment. We offer privacy, choice, and the opportunity to pursue a meaningful life.
