Creating Lives That Thrive
Liz Kane founded Shire House when she became aware of the need for post-education college living support services and transition to independent living support services needed for her son. Liz had been involved in the management of her son’s special needs since his Autism diagnosis in 1999, therefore, giving her the confidence to undertake a project such as Shire House. Liz’s previous work experience had been in business management and Alzheimer’s patient care. Currently, Liz serves as the Executive Director of the Shire House non-profit organization and as the Shire House Residential Programs & Services Director.
We are pleased to announce a new partnership between Shire House and Alora Farms. Alora Farms is a farmstead wellness haven for autist teens and adults to live and work as part of a thriving community.
Our Shire House Mission is to create a community of and for Autism Spectrum and Neurodiverse adults where friendships and supports will be forged as our young adults begin their journey into self-management and independent living.
