A betterHOME Community will be an urban enclave of about 15 - 20 housing units for older adults, that is focused on providing a more integrated and interdependent community.
The project will be a retrofit of an existing apartment building to create shared community (dining, project, activity and services) spaces to complement personal units which are well suited to older adults who wish to remain in their own private "home." The building's community, unit design, support services and location will enhance social connectedness as well as ease and safety of independent living.
