A group home is located in a residential area and provides shelter for a small number of non-related persons. The residents are people in need of care, support, or supervision who live together, such as those who are elderly or mentally challenged.

What makes Jaylons Arms Group Home different from other group homes?

In general, a typical group home provides homes to minor children, seniors, and severely disabled persons who require medical care and support 24 hours a day. Jaylons Arms provides a home for forgotten young adults with special needs. We provide a safe and affordable home to adults that are between the ages of 19-25 that have special needs. Our residents present with conditions such as ADHD, mild mental retardation, and other diagnosed mental and/or physical limitations that prevent them from maintaining a private home, but with guidance and assistance can live independently.

Our residents are comprised of persons who have aged out of foster care, are homeless because they cannot manage their finances, or require guidance to manage their daily activities. We target young adults because, without the proper guidance, they can become addicted to drugs, incarcerated, or at worst victims of abuse and sex trafficking.

PROBLEM

Texas has one of the largest disabled homeless populations. According to the Social Security Office of Retirement and Disability Policy (2017), the number of SSI recipients between the ages of 18-64 in Texas was 341,903.

Key findings from the 2020 Homeless Count according to Coalition for the Homeless:

30% of the adult population experiencing homelessness on the night of the Count met the definition of chronic homelessness, meaning they have experienced homelessness for more than a year and have a mental and/or physical disability.
32% of the adult population experiencing homelessness self-reported suffering from a serious mental illness.
26% of the adult population self-reported substance use disorder

Findings from Empowered Cities

Earnings: Among those who are working, more than 33,000 people, or 57 percent of workers with disabilities are earning less than $25,000 compared with 38 percent of those without disabilities.
Educational Attainment: 54 percent of people with disabilities have a high school degree or less compared with 42 percent of those without a disability. 20 percent have a Bachelor's degree or higher compared to 35 percent of those without a disability.
Poverty Status: 32 percent of working-age people with disabilities live below poverty compared with 16 percent of those without disabilities.

SOLUTION

What does Jaylons Arms Group Home offer?

Jaylons Arms will provide a safe and comfortable environment that will promote independence to adults with special needs. Our residents are expected to manage their own personal care, but we will assist as needed. Group homes are more independent than assisted living facilities, therefore our residents are expected to take care of their own personal care needs. However, just like family, we will provide support, and direction, and assist our residents with their independence allowing them to remain in charge of their daily goals.

Medication reminders are given, but residents are responsible for taking medication on their own.
We will provide opportunities for indoor and outdoor activities however our residents are expected to decide whether they want to attend those activities or not.
We will provide our residents with meals, laundry service, lightroom cleaning, reminders for bathing, handwashing, hand sanitizing, and mask-wearing.
Residents who require health appointments will have assistance in scheduling and reminders.
Residents can schedule home visits for their health care needs.
We will provide support to ensure our residents' personal care needs are met, however, we do expect our residents to be independent.
It will be the responsibility of our residents to request additional assistance as needed.
In lieu of COVID-19 and the Public Health Pandemic, our staff is also equipped to keep our residents safe with social distancing and other safety precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and other airborne illnesses amongst our residents.
We will assist with scheduling hair care and other grooming service appointments.
We will provide transportation to appointments and expect our residents to request these services at least 48 hours in advance.
We will provide a clean and safe home for our residents to live independently and thrive.
We will provide staff and volunteers 24 hours a day and 7 days a week to monitor and assist with maintaining our resident’s safety and comfort.
We will provide transportation for College and Work-related activities and functions.

COST FOR GROUP HOME RESIDENTS

Group home costs vary depending on the services rendered. The cost for assisted living facilities in Texas ranges from, $3000-$4000 per month. They provide total care services for residents including medical and nursing services. Senior group home's price range is in the same category, however, they provide less hands-on care and promote an independent lifestyle. Group homes for independent residents that are limited on personal care services but require guidance, reassurance, and limited supervision monthly cost ranges between $600-$900 a month depending on zip code and location. Jaylons Arms group home will provide a low-cost rate that will allow our residents to have money left over to enjoy entertainment and other leisure activities outside of bill payments. We ask for donations to keep our residents daily living cost low, and still provide a safe home in a quality living environment. We want to give our residents a peace of mind knowing they wont have to stress about rent payments, evictions, and meals. Please donate today to help our residents live a quality lifestyle as we prepare them for a sustainable future.
