Get Involved with Emmaus Homes
Independence begins with community.
You can help adults with developmental disabilities live more independent, joy-filled lives.
You Can Make a Real Difference
At Emmaus Homes, we walk alongside adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities every day — helping them live with dignity, independence, and purpose. But we don’t do it alone.
We rely on a generous and compassionate community of supporters, volunteers, and advocates like you.
Whether you give your time, your resources, or your skills, you are helping us build community, nurture relationships, and celebrate lives full of possibility.
