Community Homes for Adults, Inc. (CHAI) is a nonprofit organization based in Dallas, Texas, that provides housing and a range of support services for adults with intellectual disabilities to help them live safely and participate in their communities. The entity operates on a non-sectarian basis while functioning under Jewish auspices. CHAI was established in 1983 by Dr. Carmen Miller Michael and a group of community leaders, with the concept approved by the Social Planning Committee of the Jewish Federation of Greater Dallas and endorsed by its Board. Its mission centers on facilitating living arrangements, education, and advocacy to support residents and clients.

CHAI's offerings include housing, life skills education, day habilitation, job training and support, opportunities for social inclusion, and multiple healthcare options, all delivered by a team of advocates committed to respectful, compassionate service. The organization has expanded its service footprint through the acquisition of homes and the creation of the Wolens Program Services and a Day Habilitation program, supported by donor contributions. CHAI serves the Dallas area and focuses on adults with intellectual disabilities, aiming to enable meaningful participation in the community.
