Milestone Homes

Reaching life’s greatest achievements one Milestone at a time!

Milestone Homes services DDD members by providing a family structured stable living environment where they will feel accepted, loved, and safe. Milestone homes extends care to adults, children, and their siblings. Our promise is to provide our members with the solid foundation needed to reach life’s greatest achievements one milestone at a time.

It is Milestone's belief that all people deserve to be raised in a family like setting with adults who will care, love, and support them through life. To do this It is our goal to create quality family homes that can house these members for the long term stay while keeping committed staff, consistency in the home, and care at its best. This is especially important for members who have developmental disabilities and if given the chance could also live with and have the support alongside their siblings.
 
While there are many facilities providing shelter, we see room to provide better care by putting in time and efforts to support members beyond expectations, all while living in a family-oriented environment where Milestone family Homes will extend and devote their time to the development and collaboration of the entire family and staff.
