The help you get depends on your needs and goals while at The Station. Most residents want help with things like budgeting, grocery shopping, meal preparation, cleaning, employment, and school. We can help with all of these things!

It depends on how long you need and how much time it to takes you to accomplish your goals towards independence.

Residents are encouraged to get to know one another.

Group meetings are set up to share important information or get opinions on how things are going at The Station, and on what could be done differently/better.

We also plan fun activities and group meals from time to time. We love to see everyone at these events, but you don’t always have to come.
