| Project description | Beaver Hill is a large house community for young adults from 18 to 21 with developmental disabilities. Most of the volunteer caregivers live at the house. It celebrates special events and other activities together. Care is continuous at Beaver Hill (no shift changes). Living together like this does not constitute a job so much as a way of life. The house community plays a key role in providing stability in human relationships and engendering a warm, positive, and well structured environment. |
