The Norwich Group Home is a large house located in the outskirts of downtown Norwich. It consists of six beds, which provide each resident with their own room. It contains spacious common areas including a large living room, dining room, 4 staff offices and a fully equipped game room with amenities such as fitness equipment, a regulation size pool table, air hockey table and X-Box 360 video game system.

Our Montville Group Home is located just down the road from our main campus in a rural setting. This large colonial consists of four bedrooms each with a different theme; from Spiderman to Sponge Bob the bedrooms are inviting and childlike. The common areas are spacious and fully equipped with recreational and educational toys and games that any young boy would enjoy. This home is designed for boys age 7 - 12.
