Mission Statement
To provide a loving and unique housing community for young adults with physical and/or developmental disabilities that will enhance the quality of their lives.
Description
Glennwood Housing Foundation, Inc. (GHF) opened the doors to a 42-room, independent-living facility in Laguna Beach that has become home for up to 50 young adults with developmental disabilities. Located on a 30,000 square foot site with views of the Pacific Ocean, this facility accommodates state-of-the-art ADA and Community Care License (CCL#306004493) compliant living, dining, kitchen, recreational and social spaces.
For many of these remarkable young men and women, this is their first opportunity to fully realize personal growth as an adult. Under the guidance of 15 trained direct care staff, they receive support and encouragement to take steps towards assisted independence. They also have the opportunity to develop skills including self-care, meal planning, grocery shopping, money management and apartment housekeeping.
