1651 Building overview
We are creating a welcome and sustainable living environment for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). This building provides accessible housing that fosters independence, social connection, and a sense of belonging, while also promoting community integration and empowerment.
1651 Richfield will foster a community where residents can interact, build relationships, and engage in social, educational, and recreational activities while still attending their existing programs, employment and established activities.
Co Living
What do we mean by co-living? Co-living lets residents, or "neighbors," live in a studio or one-bedroom apartment, with either a kitchenette or a full kitchen if they want. The "co" part comes from having lots of shared spaces where you can leave your apartment to spend time with friends—whether that's watching TV, cooking meals, playing games, or just hanging out.
Service Model
We believe that every resident should have the freedom to choose who provides their support services. To ensure flexibility, the following options will be available:
- CCHI works closely with service providers to connect families with the resources and support they need. We believe that everyone requires assistance in some form, and our goal is to ensure all residents have access to the services they deserve. By partnering with organizations like Keshet, JCFS, TotalLink to Community, Glenkirk, and Clearbrook, we aim to broaden the reach of these valuable supports and make them accessible to everyone using either private funding, home based funding or I-CILA.
- The level of support a resident receives will be determined by their families personal choice and will be independent of the cost of rent.
- CCHI engages a dedicated group of parent and family volunteers who actively contribute to our community while providing additional support.
- At least one resident advisor will be available for overnight stays, offering additional support and guidance.
- A property manager will oversee maintenance and ensure the facility remains in optimal condition.
- A front desk representative will be available 24/7, providing assistance and ensuring smooth operations.
- Advanced technology will be incorporated to help residents achieve greater independence and self-sufficiency.
- An agency presence will be leasing space in the building, offering a range of services that are directly billed to Medicaid.
- Involve families, caregivers, and residents in the planning and decision-making process to ensure the community meets their needs.
Empowering adults
This community is designed to empower adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities by providing not only a safe and supportive living environment but also opportunities for personal growth, community integration, and a fulfilling life. By building a community that embraces inclusivity, sustainability, and collaboration, CCHI is setting a new standard for what is possible in the world of collective, accessible housing.
