on into our community. With the help of our staff, donors, volunteers and local community, we strive to improve the quality of life for the people we serve and their families. Our individualized programs and services are provided in an atmosphere of respect, inspiration and purpose. We currently serve over 250 individuals living independently with support in the community in Marin, Sonoma and San Francisco Counties. Formerly known as MARC, Lifehouse is recognized as an innovative and forward thinking leader, continually striving to provide the highest level of services to the people we support and developing new programs to meet the needs of the community. Lifehouse provided the early leadership for special education, implemented the first employment training program, started Marin Special Olympics, launched community recreation programs for adults, a seniors program, and most recently, programs to address social and recreation needs for teens with developmental disabilities and the increased needs of those with autism. Lifehouse offers a comprehensive skills training model focused on each individual’s needs. We support many individuals with varying disabilities, and the needs of the people we support vary; this can range from two hours per week to 24-hour care. At Lifehouse, each individual participates in developing individual goals and is supported by a team of professionals.

🚢🌉 Ferry rides, burgers, and big smiles!

Our RecLife crew recently enjoyed a picture-perfect day on the Bay, soaking up the sunshine on a scenic ferry ride followed by a delicious meal at Gott’s Roadside. 🌞🍔

The RecLife program is all about getting out, making memories, and connecting with the community — and this outing was the perfect blend of adventure and fun.

Here’s to more days like this! 💙

🚨 Prepared for Anything: Lifehouse in Action 🚨

On April 3, Lifehouse proudly participated in the Marin County Medical Response Surge Exercise—a county-wide emergency drill simulating extreme heat, power outages, and a mass-casualty event.

From locating a missing resident with complex medical needs to managing a simulated blackout, our staff at Nova House and Stonehaven rose to the challenge with skill, calm, and compassion.

👏 Led by Annie Aguilar, Stephanie Martinez, Kate O’Connor, and a dedicated team of DSPs, Lifehouse demonstrated the power of preparedness and inclusive emergency planning for people with I/DD.

💪 We’re proud to be part of a safer, more responsive future.
