Our Story

Founded on the belief that everyone deserves a home that loves them back.

Mercy Meadows Developmental Homes was founded in Adelanto, California in 2023 to fill a quiet but urgent gap: adults with developmental disabilities who had aged out of family care and into institutions where they were merely managed, not known.

We opened our doors with one home, six residents, and a radical idea โ€” that "care" should look less like a checklist and more like a Sunday dinner. Today, we serve dozens of individuals through residential homes and day programs, and we are growing because the need is growing.
