(7.10) What is a Family Teaching Home?

A Family Teaching Home is another living arrangement for adults.[1]Section 4689.1(c). It differs from an AFHA in two ways:

  1. The family and the person(s) with a disability do not share the same private home. The teaching family lives in a home attached or near the home of the person(s). It is usually a duplex owned, leased, or rented by the AFHA.
  2. The Family Teaching Home is designed to support up to three adults with any developmental disability, who do not need continuous skilled nursing care.
