Residential Services
Saint Francis & Saint Vincent offers a variety of residential options based on the needs of each individual and the programs that they are participating in.
-
On our main campus, we provide supportive group homes where residents benefit from a nurturing community environment while receiving individualized instruction, structured support, and access to therapy and educational services at St. Katharine Drexel School. This integrated approach ensures that students with academic deficits and emotional/behavioral challenges have the resources they need to thrive academically, emotionally, and socially.

Supportive community living to assist youth in transitioning to independence, providing supervision, educational services, life skills, and job readiness support.

SSIL (Supported Supervised Independent Living) offers apartment living for older residents aged 18 to 20, providing a supportive environment for transitioning to independence. Residents share an apartment, receiving guidance from a staff member living in the building and engaging in educational and vocational pursuits while learning essential life skills and job readiness.
