As the widowed mother of a 38 year old son, I feel the urgency of a community such as this. Living as independently as possible is a crucial element for my son's future. Jobs, community interaction and friendship are integral parts of all of our lives and is certainly a vital part of the developmentally disabled adults lives as well. With the assistance of loving, caring volunteers and well trained staff, this will become a reality. The future of OSPREY VIllage is comforting to me and crucial for my son.
