Welcome Home
Serving Adults with Developmental Disabilities
We are 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?
Help PCH by Hitting the Greens!
Our annual Golf Tournament helps us operate, maintain, and make imperative updates to more than 80 properties throughout the St. Louis area. Proceeds raised from this event allow us to continue to provide the health and security that only comes with the comfort of home.
This year’s event will take place on Tuesday, May 6, 2025 at The Courses at Forest Park and is one of the liveliest and most fun events of the year! We cannot wait to see you on the greens where together we can make the difference in the lives of nearly 300 adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities!

🏡 April is Fair Housing Month!
The Fair Housing Act of 1968 made it illegal to discriminate in housing based on:
✳️ Disability
✳️ Race or color
✳️ Religion
✳️ Sex
✳️ National origin
✳️ Familial status
Thanks to HUD’s support in the 1970s, Promise Community Homes built our first seven homes—and their continued funding still helps us provide accessible, affordable housing for about 75 adults with IDD today. 💙
Everyone deserves a place to call home.

✨ New roof, new peace of mind!
This home is now ready to take on the wild Midwest weather—thanks to the amazing work by @artemis.constructiongroup.
It’s home to five men with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and now it’ll keep them safe and dry for many seasons to come.
We’re so grateful to our partners who help us maintain quality, accessible homes across the STL area.

In honor of National Sibling Day, we’re excited to introduce you to two incredible sisters, Susie and Kelly. While they live in different PCH homes, they're only a short walk away from each other. When Susie came to visit Kelly for this special photo, it was clear how close these two are. Susie loves spending time in Kelly’s room, surrounded by her personal touches—like her plushie hammock and framed Star Trek poster.
It wasn’t surprising to see Kelly leading the way around her house, confidently hanging up her coat before guiding us to a cozy spot in the shared family room where we captured their photo together.
Like most of us, the sisters were eager to see their photo. Upon noticing a highly-cracked phone screen, they were assured that the camera lens was still in perfect shape and the photo turned out beautifully. Kelly, with a big smile, joked that a new phone might be in order—prompting a good laugh all around.
A heartfelt thank you to Susie and Kelly for being such amazing models and wonderful sisters. We’d also like to express our gratitude to @stlouisarc for coordinating this visit and providing such exceptional care for these wonderful women. We’re so grateful to see adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities thrive in their forever homes.
What is your favorite memory with your siblings?

A deck transformation in four parts...
One of the original PCH homes recently received a brand-new wraparound deck and ramp, replacing the aging structure. For added strength, solid wood was used for the support posts, while the rest of the deck is made of durable composite material. Thank you to @mdr_build_llc for their excellent work—now the six residents can enjoy their outdoor space for years to come!

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.
