What is The Village

The Village is where we connect families and individuals to share our time, energy, physical space and money with one another. Through this connection we can experience more of what we need; mutual support, presence, simplicity and peace.

What we offer

We lighten the load of stressed out and overwhelmed families, by carefully matching them with an individual who can provide live in support. For the individual, they benefit from having a safe, affordable home to live in.
