Living at Pathfinder Village

Residential life

Family Homes & Fitting In

The residential homes at Pathfinder Village serve as the backdrop for all other programs offered to our residents. Each of the ten colonial homes features the amenities of comfortable living. Each home has a comfortable, bright living room and spacious kitchen/dining areas where boys, girls, men and women live, share household activities and meals.

Every resident contributes in their own way to make a secure, caring and homelike atmosphere. Independence is fostered so that everyone may benefit from personal achievement. Each house is staffed around-the-clock by trained residential aides who supervise and encourage the residents in all areas of development, including:

  • social skills
  • personal hygiene
  • safety skills
  • health and fitness
  • laundry
  • housecleaning
  • food shopping
  • cooking
  • community involvement

The daily schedule begins with breakfast. After making beds, packing lunches and other activities, Pathfinder's residents venture out for the day at 8 a.m. -- either to the Village School or to any number of employment opportunities in the surrounding communities.

At the day's close, Pathfinder's residents take part in a wide range of leisure time activities. The residents gather again in the evening to prepare dinner, where everyone sits down together for a lively, nutritious meal. Household chores, other recreational activities or one-on-one tutoring round-out the day. The weekends are filled with community outings, village activities, family visits, and time to relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
