Meet Our Residents
Residents at our Fellowship Houses are active, independent, and remain engaged with life in their communities. Some residents are area natives, with most of them coming from the East Coast and states east of the Mississippi River. However, many residents relocated from across the country, or from other nations, to be near family members.
Residents often worked in occupations with little or no retirement benefits such as teaching, cosmetology, unskilled labor, and farming. Some are even refugees from forced labor camps. All have limited means and many live on Social Security or Supplemental Security Income alone. Without Fellowship Houses, many of our residents would live in less-than-ideal conditions or be homeless.

Seniors Celebrate “Prom”
Hunters Woods Fellowship House
It’s been a while since most of these partygoers have been to a prom. For others, it was the first chance they’d had to attend a “prom” dance.
