Shire House offers and manages Shared Housing Programs for adults 18 and over within the HFA (formerly known as Aspergers) and Neurodiverse community.

Here's how it works:

• Shire House holds the lease on the particular property.
• There is an Agreement between the housemate and parents or just the housemate; Shire House manages the agreements.
• The housemate understands they are committing to participate in a Shared Housing program.
• The fees for each home are tailored by the cost of the rent, utilities, and amenities such as food.
• The housemate must be employed or have other financial resources to pay for or purchase expenses outlined in the parent agreement or the Shire House Shared Housing Agreement.
• The housemate understands they are committing to participate in a Shared Housing program.
• The housemate will be asked to exit the program if they are not adhering to the Shared Housing agreement.
• Shire House provides guidance and support when a client transitions out of Shire House to their particular independent living setting.

Home
Mission Road has 16 adult community homes throughout the city of San Antonio and one assisted living home on the main Mission Road campus for adults. Residents living in the homes are assisted by well-trained, 24-hour AWAKE staff. During the week, residents spend their day working, training for a job, volunteering or engaging in a social/habilitation program. Evenings are spent acquiring and refining the skills needed to live a more independent and fulfilled life. Weekends are for shopping, completing chores, recreational activities and spending time with friends.

Apartments
Mission Road Ministries sponsors a supervised apartment program for adults with intellectual and other developmental disabilities who need minimal supports. The goal of the program is to provide supportive services to optimize the independence and productivity of the adults in an affordable living arrangement.

Mission Road has three apartment complexes in San Antonio that provide affordable housing and services for the tenants. Suzanne Smith Management Company supervises the three apartments: Independence Square, Murray Manor and Meadow Brook. The apartments are Housing and Urban Development (HUD) subsidized apartment complexes designed exclusively for adults with intellectual and other developmental disabilities. The apartments have one or two bedroom options with a community room for gatherings and a laundry room.

A few of our children living at Mission Road are members of loving and participative families. These families partner with us to care for their children overnight, throughout the week and on weekends as is helpful. We provide each child with professional, 24-hour AWAKE care by trained, attentive staff allowing the child to thrive and grow into a successful and happy adult.

We provide our partnering families with time and respite from the 24/7/365 care that often overwhelms families with children with special needs.

The children in our Boarding School program join us as residents in our cottages and participate completely in all campus and programming activities. The children attend public school at Harlandale ISD as full time students utilizing the exceptional special needs education program of the district.

Families maintain complete and full access to their children and are welcomed to the campus any time, day or night, to monitor and oversee their child's care. Parents are encouraged to attend all campus events and field trips. Parents continue to include their children in family activities that are part of their family tradition.

Children ages 3 to 17 years with intellectual and other developmental disabilities.

Mission Road Boarding School is a private, fee-for-service program contracted annually, billed monthly and priced individually based upon the needs of the child.

Children in our Custodial Residential Care program have been removed from their homes due to abuse, neglect or exploitation and are placed with Mission Road by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services.

The children depend upon our highly trained staff to provide the support that enables them to achieve their full potential. Many of the children have physical disabilities and challenging behaviors, along with emotional scars.

At Mission Road, the children find a new, safe and predictable home staffed by trained, loving and professional caregivers. Our children thrive and progress in a safe, happy family setting in which all their needs are met--and then some!

Children ages 3 to 17 years with intellectual and other developmental disabilities.

To apply to be a Foster Care Provider contact Manny Vela.

Funding for foster care is covered by the Home and Community-Based Services (HSC) Medicaid program. Individuals who do not qualify or are waiting for HCS funding may pay privately to live in a foster home.

This program is for individuals with intellectual and other developmental disabilities (IDD).

All services are paid by Medicaid and personal income is managed by the provider, representative payee, or the client themselves. If the client works, a percentage of earnings is refunded to Medicaid. SSDI (Social Security Disability Income) funds can continue with a percentage repaid Medicaid.

RMI's Semi-Independent Apartment program gives adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities the ability to live in the community with more freedom and more responsibility. Residents in this program lease their own apartment and pay their own expenses. They may choose to live by themselves or share an apartment with a roommate.

At San Mateo Apartment Homes, Waters at Elm Creek and other apartment communities in San Antonio, RMI residents work, play, shop and worship with others in their neighborhoods. With ongoing support from RMI staff, residents are able to meet the everyday challenges of living independently.

The upcoming Southwind Fields Tiny House Community is Phase 3 of the overall vision for Southwind Fields.

It will provide a residential situation where our Locals (Southwind members) will experience an all-inclusive community of acceptance, growth, independence, and support in a therapeutic and supportive atmosphere.

Each resident will be provided a comfortable, manageably-sized rental home (or a room in The Inn for residents needing more individualized supervision) to call their own. We encourage residents to bring furniture and items to decorate as they please.

Each home will be fitted with A/C and a wet space for a sink and small refrigerator, but shared kitchens will be available also. These will create a sense of community and provide a higher level of safety.

In these moderately supervised spaces, our Locals may enjoy cooking and breaking bread alongside their neighbors and friends. Residents who have passed a simple cooking and food-handling course can prepare their own meals.

Heartland is a place that provides these children with a loving family, often in stark contrast to the neglectful environments they came from. Heartland is located on eighteen heavily wooded acres of land outside of Boerne, Texas in the world famous Texas Hill Country. It's a tranquil place where the air is fresh and the skies are beautiful. There are farm animals to help with child development for the more fortunate children that have the ability to venture outside of the home. There is individualized special care provided for the ones that have more medical needs and don't share the same blessings. Services are provided to the children from birth to eighteen years of age.

Heartland also assists families in the community that find themselves overwhelmed physically and financially with the special medical and developmental needs of their children. There is a great need when caring for handicapped and terminally ill children for education of parents and significant others. To be able to ask questions and receive understandable answers to these questions can lighten the burden that some of these families face on a day to day basis.
