The goal of Homeshare is to support recovery!

Recovery is universal. Everyone goes through some form of recovery in a personal and unique way. Recovery involves a sense of hope, support, self-help, self-determination, and meaningful activities to prosper. People living with mental illness have the same dreams as we do to live independently, spend time with family and friends, and have purpose. Homeshare Providers support the recovery of people living with mental illness.
