IC3

The Intentional Collaborative Community Connection (IC3) is a group of individuals working to create something that is urgently needed: A residential community designed for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).

​

Right now there is a severe shortage of safe, affordable, meaningful, long-term housing. Wait lists can be up to 3 years or longer. IC3 exists to offer a solution!

​

Their goal is to increase safety and stability, reduce social isolation, and provide consistent access to social, recreational, enrichment and vocational opportunities.

​

Their design offers "pocket style" neighborhoods - nothing commercial or institutional!

The plan is to offer mixed-housing options for 125 - 130 people with IDD, a nature inspired campus with walking paths, green spaces with differing amenities, and gathering areas that foster natural social interaction, as well as a robust Community Center for arts and performance among other things.

​

They know this approach works... communities like this are already demonstrating improved quality of life with local housing waitlists stretching three years or more, the demand for a community like this is TODAY!
