Family Home Provider

WHAT IS A FAMILY HOME PROVIDER?

A Family Home Provider is many things to many people. Ultimately, a Family Home Provider is a contracted individual or family who wishes to include an adult with a developmental and/or intellectual disability into their home and family. A Family Home Provider is a compassionate, driven, and dedicated person who believes that there is no limit to what any human can accomplish and will assist in every way to ensure that those goals are achieved. Likewise, Bridges of Kentucky is committed to supporting our Family Home Providers in this passionate endeavor as we build stronger relationships by empowering our Family Home Providers and our individuals.
