Casa Familia

Eight years ago, around a kitchen table, a group of families realized they shared a common fear: "What's going to happen to my child when I am no longer around to care for them?" This fear turned into a shared dream — a dream of creating Exceptional Housing for Exceptional People. Casa Familia is developing the first-of-its-kind enriched affordable housing community for adults with IDD and other related disabilities in South Florida.

Through generous support and guidance from public and private partnerships, Casa Familia is creating a multi-phase affordable residential community designed to serve the needs of a broad spectrum of individuals with IDD and other related disabilities. Phase I will consist of 50 spacious one- and two-bedroom apartments that can accommodate approximately 60 adults, and an 11,000 square foot state-of-the-art community center. In addition, there will be robust activities and services tailored for them.

We believe that Casa Familia is more than just a physical community; it is a village; a village of people who share a belief that adults with intellectual, developmental, and other related disabilities deserve to have an affordable choice in where they live. If you share this belief, welcome to our Familia! Your support and donations are building a better future!
