305 8th STREET IS EXPANDING: 305 8th Street, a faith-based 501(c) 3 nonprofit organization that provides a home and family for disabled adults, is making its latest project, Nora’s House, a reality \u2013 thanks to the generosity of many Huntsville\/Madison County community partners. Construction is scheduled to begin this month and is set to be completed in Spring of 2017.<\/p>\n Nora’s House will expand 305 8th Street\u2019s services to include 8 beds for new residents with disabilities who do not meet state-waivered requirements and need 24-hour supervision. “Disabled adults who are denied services based on a point difference in their IQ makes them ineligible for group home care, day services, and direct care \u2013 thus leaving a vulnerable population of adults in need,” Executive Director Andrea Williams reports. “Some women on our waiting list have been awaiting placement for over 3 years.” <\/p>\n Currently 305 8th Street provides 24-hour supervision and care for 15 adults as well as supportive care to 5 residents living off-site. “For the people on our waiting list, Nora\u2019s House is the answer to their families\u2019 prayers, who have nowhere else they can turn to for supportive housing and care,” states Williams. <\/p>\n Major partners for Nora\u2019s House are:<\/strong> More information, including how to donate and volunteer, is available on our website www.3058thstreet.org, our Facebook Page \u201c305 8th Street\u201d or by calling (256) 489-2997.<\/p>\n ###<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" PR Contact: Andrea Williams, Executive Director Phone: (256) 489-2997 Email: Andrea@3058thstreet.org 305 8th STREET IS EXPANDING: NORA\u2019S HOUSE CONSTRUCTION BEGINS OCTOBER 2016 305 8th Street, a faith-based 501(c) 3 nonprofit organization that provides a home and family for disabled adults,… Continue Reading
