We currently own and operate six single-family homes located in Northern Virginia which allow 30 adult men and women with intellectual disabilities to live in safe, secure, caring, and well-managed home environments as members of a community.
On 17 July, 2019, Fairfax County’s Department of Housing and Community Development released a request seeking proposals from non-profit entities to provide accommodations for intellectually disabled individuals. Marian Homes developed and submitted a business plan on September 26, 2019, which laid out our strategies to acquire, renovate, staff and operate a 5-bedroom, single family ranch-style home located at 9817 Limoges Drive in Fairfax, VA.

Our key partners are Chimes International, which will provide full-time residential case management support to our residents, and Hensel Phelps, which will serve as our renovation general contractor.
Fairfax County approved our business proposal on December 14, 2019!
