Bob Brown House

The mission for our organization is "Opening a door to independence for the physically and mentally challenged.

We opened the doors of Bob W. Brown Housing for the Handicapped, Lexington, Kentucky, in 1976 to provide an independent living experience for low income physically and mentally challenged adults. Because rents are based on income, most of our residents could not afford to live in traditional housing or other homes for the physically or mentally challenged not based on income. We believe we offer a unique opportunity for these individuals to live independently, but safely in a protected environment.

History:

We have been in Lexington for more than 30 years and provided independent living for low income adults during this period. Our home was built by community volunteers whose goal was to provide a safe living environment for the physically and mentally challenged. Initially considered for the blind, it was soon expanded for individuals with other disabilities and it has been that way since.
