Welcome to Hiawatha Homes


Hiawatha Homes opened its doors in response to the heartfelt commitment of a group of concerned parents and dedicated community members who shared a vision for a nurturing environment. They envisioned a place where individuals with disabilities would be embraced and treated as individuals first, rather than defined solely by their challenges.


The founders passionately dreamed of creating a space that would offer quality, loving, and comprehensive care tailored to meet the unique needs of each person. Their commitment was to ensure that every individual received the attention and respect they deserved. Now, more than forty-five years later, we proudly continue to uphold that original vision, and our number one goal remains steadfast: to provide exceptional quality care for individuals, honoring their dignity and supporting their growth in every possible way.
