Residential Group Homes in Iowa

As a division of Vibrant Homecare, Vibrant SCL specializes in Supported Community Living (SCL) services through small, comfortable group homes located across Iowa. These homes are designed for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities who need consistent support in a safe, home-like setting.

We believe that every individual deserves the opportunity to live as independently as possible, surrounded by a caring team and a strong sense of community. From daily routines to personal goals, we’re here to provide the structure, encouragement, and peace of mind families deserve.

What Are Group Homes?

Group homes are residential homes shared by a small number of individuals with similar support needs. Residents live together and receive professional care from trained staff who are on-site 24/7. Each home is designed to promote independence while ensuring safety, health, and well-being.

This model is ideal for individuals who benefit from a structured environment but still want to live in a place that feels like home—not an institution. It’s a great fit for those who enjoy peer interaction, predictable routines, and meaningful day-to-day experiences.

What You’ll Find In Our Group Homes

When a loved one joins a Vibrant SCL group home, they become part of a supportive household designed to feel just like home — not a facility. Each home includes:

  • 24/7 professional support staff trained in ID/DD care and behavioral health
  • Fully furnished private or shared bedrooms
  • Nutritious meal planning and preparation with resident input
  • Medication management and healthcare coordination
  • Daily living support including hygiene, routines, and mobility
  • Transportation to appointments, community outings, and day programs
  • Housekeeping and laundry services
  • Personal goal tracking and skill-building opportunities

We partner closely with guardians, case managers, and residents to ensure every home meets physical, emotional, and developmental needs.

Friendship and Belonging

Group home life naturally fosters friendships and connection. Residents share meals, routines, and everyday moments, all supported by staff who encourage respectful communication and inclusion. 

Community Involvement

Residents stay active through local outings, volunteer work, and events like the Special Olympics. These experiences help build confidence and a routine outside the home.

Safety and Peace of Mind

Our homes are licensed, professionally staffed, and closely monitored. With low staff-to-resident ratios and clear communication with families, we ensure a safe, consistent, and trustworthy environment. 

Is a Group Home the Right Fit?

Choosing a group home is a big step, and we’re here to help you figure out if it’s the right one. Our homes are well-suited for individuals who:

  • Need 24/7 support or supervision
  • Benefit from structured routines and consistent care
  • Enjoy living in a shared home with peers
  • Want to build independence in a safe, supported way

If that sounds like your loved one, we’d love to connect with you.
