Welcome House is committed to a goal of creating and maintaining residential community-based programs for the care and assistance of people who have Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) regardless of their race, color, creed, religion or national origin.
We have a deep commitment to the clients who are dependent upon or look to us today and in the future for the provision of assistance to meet their individual needs.
The family-style group homes are established to encourage as normal a living environment as possible and to provide the least restricted and most independent living arrangement possible.
The supported living program responds to the desires and self-expressed needs of each client, and strives to deliver in-home assistance to individuals with IDD, enabling them to live in settings of their choice.
History
The West Haven Foundation was established in 1972 as an Ohio not-for-profit corporation. In 1981 the organization opened its first group home in Westlake and subsequently over the next thirteen years developed a variety of residential and community based programs and services in support of persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities. In 1994 West Haven began to focus its mission more on fund raising and elected to turn over all direct service delivery functions and responsibilities to Welcome House, Inc.
