"It’s not a house — it’s a home" By Terri Hogan, Staff Writer of The Gazette
Welcome to Rosaria Communities Inc.
Rosaria Communities is a neighborhood where resources meet to create homes for intellectually disabled citizens. After the homes are built or acquired and renovated, Rosaria leads the Welcome Wagon. We introduce our new residents to their neighbors in the local Catholic parish which sponsors the home; and which ministers to our residents’ interests in friendship, community involvement and spiritual nourishment. Our role is perpetual in assuring that the moving parts are harmonious in promoting the well-being of our residents; and in efficient stewardship and maintenance of their homes.
