Road to Responsibility Expands Support Services with New Taunton Residential Program

Road to Responsibility has opened a new residential program in Taunton, Massachusetts, representing a significant expansion of supportive housing for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The single-story residence on Range Avenue, developed by long-time partner Patriot Investment Corp. of South Easton, will house several current RTR members who have aged out of the educational system while creating opportunities for others on the waiting list for similar services through the Department of Developmental Services.

The Taunton home offers a supportive environment with comprehensive services, 24-hour staffing, and independent living options including smart technology integration. This expansion comes at a critical time as demand for such services continues to grow across the region. Christopher T. White, Ed.D., president and CEO of Road to Responsibility, emphasized that the organization remains committed to developing high-quality supportive homes that empower individuals to live more independently and with dignity.

The partnership with Patriot Investment Corp. has been instrumental in making these vital expansions possible, demonstrating how collaborative efforts between nonprofit organizations and private developers can address pressing community needs. Road to Responsibility, which has been serving the community for over 37 years, operates 49 residences as well as cooperative and supportive living apartments throughout the South Shore and South Coast of Massachusetts.

The new Taunton residence represents part of RTR's ongoing mission to provide individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities the means, opportunity, and support necessary to become productive members of their communities through an integrated clinical behavioral approach that has proven successful where other organizations often fail.
