Transitional Residence

Open Sky Co-Operative provides residential support to adults who face barriers due to social, developmental or mental health challenges. We welcome up to 2 adults in our farmhouse, providing a comfortable atmosphere for community living. Each person has their own bedroom and participates in all aspects of living in our rambling historic farmhouse. We have staff and volunteers who support each resident to achieve their best level of skill in cooking, cleaning, self-care, getting along together and maintaining a balanced life. Everyone takes a turn with household responsibilities and also participates in work teams outside of the home gardening, farming, groundskeeping, animal care, etc. We ensure a balance of social and recreational activities all week long!
