Serving Adults with Developmental Disabilities

Promise Community Homes (PCH) is here to help answer “what’s next?” for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).

In the St. Louis area alone, hundreds of people with disabilities are waiting to leave institutions, substandard housing, nursing homes, or the care of aging parents.

Want to help PCH support adults with IDD?

Your Gift Transforms More Than Houses
It Creates Home

As seasons change, we’re reminded that transformation is part of every great story, and like the shifting seasons, our work is always evolving with rising costs, unexpected repairs, and a growing need for stable housing.

We invite you to be part of this shared promise that’s more than affordable housing—it’s a foundation for a forever home that allows our residents to grow in confidence, build meaningful friendships, and experience the simple, yet powerful, joy of having a place truly their own.

Your gift, no matter the amount, directly supports safe, comfortable, and well-cared-for neighborhood homes for adults with IDD. It helps provide vital maintenance, repairs, accessibility updates, and renovations.

Even as the world changes, generosity keeps hope in motion, always finding its way home. Let us all be thankful for something often taken for granted—the transformative power of home.

With the generous support of the 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐋𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐨𝐚𝐫𝐝 (𝐏𝐋𝐁), 𝐏𝐂𝐇 purchased a home in St. Louis County!

Before new residents from @stlouisarc move in next year, we’ll update the flooring, renovate the bathrooms, and add a whole-home generator—made possible again by the 𝐏𝐋𝐁.

Once everything is complete, this house will be more accessible, comfortable, and safe—ready for adults with IDD to make it their 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞. 💙💛

𝐇𝐮𝐠𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐨𝐮𝐭 to the 𝐏𝐋𝐁 and real estate expert 𝐋𝐚𝐓𝐨𝐲𝐚 from Broadway Realty!

Every day, 𝐏𝐂𝐇 maintenance techs balance preventative maintenance with repairs, upgrades, and everything in between. With 80+ homes across a large service area, each tech works within their territory and prioritizes requests to stay efficient.

📷 One recent day, 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 evaluated a broken dishwasher & determined it needed replacing before clearing the home’s storm drain. ➡️ From there, Brent visited nearby houses to prepare them for winter—turning off outdoor valves, clearing gutters, and delivering rock salt... just in time! ❄️

Thank you, 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭! 💙 Your work helps keep every 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞 safe and comfortable. 🏠💛

So many of our volunteers help outdoors or at events—but there’s another kind of giving that means just as much. All throughout the year, amazing people of all ages come to help 𝐏𝐂𝐇 bring joy to our residents through holiday treat bags, handwritten cards, and other thoughtful touches that make each season feel special. 💙✨

Most recently 📸, we welcomed middle schoolers, high schoolers, and an extended family who showed up with hearts wide open to support the adults living in their 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞. We’re so grateful for the love they shared. 👏🏠

Testimonials

My sister lived with our parents until our mom was unable to care for her anymore due to illness. At that time, the only place for my sister to live was in a habilitation center. I was referred to a support agency, and together we approached PCH (then called Rainbow Village) to find a community home for my sister and some roommates. Rainbow Village was able to find a great home in a safe community for the residents and her whole attitude has changed. I noticed that she smiles more and is able to do things we take for granted (i.e. can go to the kitchen and get food when she wants to). The home is great and beautifully maintained. The neighbors even comment that it is one of the best looking homes in the neighborhood. I am very pleased that my sister is provided a safe, comfortable and affordable home in the community for the rest of her life.

Sister of a PCH Resident

Promise Community Homes serves two constituent groups equally – both the disabled and their families. The homes provide the ability to live and belong in community, and thereby enrich the lives of its residents. In turn, providing a safe and happy place to live gives their loved ones peace of mind and freedom of their own. As someone with a developmentally disabled family member, I understand the substantial benefits. By supporting this organization, I’m helping to create and maintain the home and community environment that means so much to so many.

I just wanted to let you know that the move-in tour went very well. The family thought it was beautiful and there were even some tears involved. Thank you for providing beautiful homes for the people we support.
