Residential programs and services for young adults within the high functioning Autism spectrum
Welcome
Our Shire House mission is to create a community of and for young adults within the high-functioning Autism spectrum. A community where friendships and support will be forged as our young adults begin their journey into independent living and will continue to be available long into their adult lives.
Services
The supportive services offered at Shire House guide clients toward mastering self-management skills needed for independent living. Supportive services include:
Executive Functioning Skills
Emotional Regulation
Social Interactions
Household Activities
Academic Support and Guidance
Social Opportunities
Shire House provides a social opportunity for young adults (17- 28) who are within the high-functioning Autism spectrum.
Our Friday socials are an opportunity for those within our community to have a place to socialize, make friends, and become part of a community of their peers.
Farm
The plans for the Shire House Small Farm are to specialize in the farming of particular vegetables on a year-round basis by utilizing both the grounds and the greenhouse. This same-cause business will partially fund our residential programs and services.
