Mitten State Independent Living provides safe, comfortable shared housing for adults who are able to live independently and are seeking a stable place to call home.

We welcome individuals from a variety of backgrounds, including:
• Veterans seeking stable, affordable housing
• Adults seeking independent living in a comfortable shared-home environment
• Individuals transitioning from shelters who are ready for a more stable housing setting
• Individuals reentering the community and working toward stability and independence
• Adults experiencing housing instability who need a safe and dependable place to live
• Individuals referred by community partners, including case managers, social workers, hospitals, shelters, veterans organizations, reentry programs, and other community agencies

Our residents must be able to live independently and manage their own daily living needs.

At Mitten State Independent Living, we believe that home is where your heart finds care. Our team is here to guide you through every step of the process, ensuring you find a safe, supportive environment to thrive.
