Assessments of daily living skills, financial resources, supervision and independence are examined by our team with careful consultation with the client, their loved ones, and their circle of friends. Alternatives runs three fully licensed small group homes. Our philosophy in the creation of a group living situation is to duplicate family living as much as possible. Therefore, we will not place more than five clients in any one home. Our in-house facilities management team is available and on call to respond to building emergencies and to maintain the quality of the home in its neighborhood.

Less structured and more independent, Supervised Living is available in four central New Jersey counties and provides individuals with needed staff support on a regular basis.
