About the role

The Shared Living program serves approximately 55 adults with varying challenges and ages to become part of a host family, with all the benefits and responsibilities that sharing a life and a household entail.

Open Sky’s Shared Living program allows providers to gain the satisfaction of knowing they are helping someone to develop the tools to live a meaningful and satisfying life. In exchange, Open Sky provides each home a comprehensive support team including individualized case management, clinical, nursing supports and a generous monthly tax-free stipend.
