First Place is innovating a holistic approach to supportive housing through sensitive design, mix of uses, an urban location and close attention to replicability. This new nonprofit continues the mission of SARRC, established in 1997 to provide lifetime support for individuals with autism and their families. First Place is developing a mixed-use property and new home option that is supported, community connected and joyfully embraced by the individuals who live there, the people who work there, and family and friends who come and go. The property includes apartments for residents, a residential academy for students and a training institute for professionals and support service providers. First Place is leveraging the benefits of a supportive urban area in Central Phoenix that's been created and facilitated by SARRC. First Place will demonstrate and advance best practices in residential options for adults with autism and related disorders, and inspire public policy changes benefiting adults with autism nationwide and around the world. By developing a new prototype for supportive housing that promotes thoughtful design, community integration and the safety, security and comforts of home, we will enable individuals to live more independently, productively and happily, exceeding their dreams and those of their families.
