At a ribbon cutting ceremony last summer, the founders of Main Street celebrated the opening of its first affordable and inclusive apartment building in Rockville, Maryland. In addition to a ground floor community center for residents and neighbors, a portion of the building's units are set aside for adults with intellectual or developmental disabilities and their caregivers. Aging parents of adults with disabilities are looking for group homes and creative housing solutions such as Main Street's so they can trust that their children will have a supportive community when they are no longer around.
