"It gives them a sense of purpose, a sense of ownership. This is where their room is, this is their home."- Nichole Freeman, Community Skills Supervisor
Our program is designed to benefit individuals who possess the necessary skills to live independently in their own apartment or home, but may require occasional drop-in support. This support may include assistance with financial matters, transportation to medical appointments, menu planning, or regular check-ins to ensure the individual's overall well-being, both physically and mentally.
This program offers individuals the opportunity to reside in a 3 or 4-bed home within the community, with an emphasis on developing community integration skills. Participants are encouraged to engage in community work and/or day programs from Monday to Friday. The Village presently delivers services to individuals residing in 17 homes within the Sheldon community.
Both apartment complexes, East Oak Apartments and Tri-Plex, are conveniently situated within the Sheldon community. East Oak Apartments features seven apartments, while Tri-Plex offers three two-bedroom apartments. These apartments are designed as semi-supervised settings, aiming to assist individuals in transitioning from congregate living to independent community living. It is worth noting that both complexes provide access to HUD rental assistance, facilitating affordable housing options for residents.
Located in Sheldon, Iowa, Village Northwest Unlimited is unlimited in our desire to provide purpose, privacy & dignity for all people.
