Other Housing options
We Have Expanded our Homes to help Everyone
At An Oasis Awaits, we believe everyone deserves a home that supports their unique needs—regardless of age or diagnosis.
Founded to address the lack of specialized housing for younger adults with MS, we’ve grown to serve all adults aged 18 and older, including those with disabilities beyond MS, such as Down Syndrome, traumatic brain injuries, or mobility-related conditions. Our communities now offer:
In-Home Caregiving: For those who prefer to live at their own home, our trained caregivers provide medical support, daily living assistance, and companionship in your own home.
