Aloha Community Platteville
We have a beautiful five-bedroom home that sits on four lush acres outside Platteville, Wisconsin. Our young adults can thrive in a structured, calm environment that combines the safety of 24-hour staff oversight with the coziness of a home family environment.
Each resident has a bedroom, access to communal spaces, where she can watch movies, play video games, participate in crafting, cooking or just relax.
Additionally, our expansive property allows for plenty of outdoor activities including gardening and maintaining a hobby farm.
The Program/Admissions
After years of structure and support — both at home and at school – that protective scaffolding falls away when our kids reach age 21. As a result, it’s not uncommon for many individuals with FASD to grapple with unemployment, substance abuse and homelessness.
Ours is an FASD only based program, developed collaboratively with Montana’s’ Farm in The Dell project and customized to meet the needs of our population. We provide the tools to achieve daily functioning skills, including duties such as preparing dinner or tending to our farm animals. This enables our residents to have a sense of responsibility, collaboration and productivity.
Our FASD-trained staff are on site 24\7.
Give us a call at: (808)-523-8191
We’ll listen. Our program is designed to create a life that balances independence and autonomy for your child and peace of mind for you. https://fasdcommunities.org/housing/
