Host Home Services at Redwood

Host Home Services offer an alternative to traditional residential settings by matching individuals with approved host home providers who open their homes and provide a supportive, family-oriented living environment.

Each placement is thoughtfully designed to promote stability, independence, community inclusion, and quality of life. Individuals receive the support they need while maintaining personal choice, dignity, and control over their daily lives.

Host Home Services can be a great option for individuals seeking a smaller, more personalized living arrangement where meaningful relationships and community connections can flourish.
