    About the Program

    The Show-Me Home program helps Missourians aged 18 and older with physical disabilities, transition from nursing homes to independent community living. We offer personalized support, housing options, and essential services to make the move successful. Our team guides participants through planning, finding housing, applying for support, and settling into their new home.
