Home Ownership Made Easy, (HOME) is a 501(c)3 non-profit housing corporation dedicated to providing housing opportunities for individuals with developmental disabilities. A developmental disability includes but is not limited to intellectually challenged, cerebral palsy, autism, epilepsy, and conditions similar. To do this, HOME accesses all available municipal, state, federal and private resources that serve these consumers by building successful relationships and pursuing all funding opportunities. Our goals are achieved through the combined efforts of teamwork, advocacy, and action, ensuring alternative housing opportunities today and in the future.
Founded in 1989, HOME works in collaboration with the Westside Regional Center (WRC) and South Central Regional Center (SCLARC), part of the State of California network of public agencies that provide support to the developmentally disabled community. Over the last 26 years, HOME has developed, acquired, rehabilitated, and created 73 units of affordable housing for individuals with developmental disabilities, living primarily on the West Side and South Central areas of Los Angeles.
““HOME makes you feel really independent. If it wasn’t for HOME, I would probably still be out there searching for a home.””
