Not Just a Home, a Nurturing Community
Meadows Homes can provide your loved one with a safe, nurturing place to learn, grow, and just be themselves.
With 20 locations throughout the community, our programs help residents develop emotionally, cognitively, culturally, and socially to their maximum potential.
We serve an average of 70 adults with intellectual disabilities thanks to funding from the Department of Developmental Disabilities of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Based on the level of care that’s needed, we offer several support options, including:
- 24-hour residential support
- Shared living placement services
- Individual community support
A person in residential housing will receive 24-hour care while those in a shared living environment or their own home will receive services based on their schedule and individualized needs.
With approximately 80 full-time employees and more than 100 part-time employees, we’re able to ensure the highest quality care for all participants.
Staff members working with more intense medical or behavioral needs receive additional training.
Our goal is for all residents to live healthy, fulfilling lives. Our holistic approach to serving residents includes guidance with:
- Safety skills

A variety of leisure activities, which can include family and friends, are accomplished with the help of a dedicated staff and registered nurse.
