About
At Stanton Home, our focus is to create a positive, affirming environment through life and work opportunities for adults with special needs. Our residential program has 7 family-style homes for 21 residents within Southern Berkshire County in Massachusetts and Northwest Connecticut. Our licensed Day Program currently serves 26 participants.
The Day Program, located on an organic farm in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, engenders a culture of self-care, environmental awareness, meaningful work, and valuable life skills through an experiential and educational program . In conjunction with our Culinary Arts Program, we provide homegrown organic produce for our daily meals, while providing valuable jobs for our residents from seed starting to food production right to the kitchen table. In addition to our Garden and Culinary Arts Program, our participants also participate in on-site 15-loom weavery and compost production.
