For many years, Ken lived in a large institutional setting, largely separated from community life. Everything changed when the deinstitutionalization movement opened the door for him to move into the community.
Today, Kenβs life is filled with the freedom, independence, and purpose he has always deserved. He enjoys strong, supportive relationships with his girlfriend of more than 40 years, his sisters, and his church community, and fills his days with word puzzles, caring for his home, and going on walks.
Kenβs life was transformed by becoming part of his community, and weβre proud to support him β and others like him β in having the opportunity to live well.
