A gift from Laura and Jim Sherman<br />
The feeling of ‘home’ begins<br />
with a house …and the<br />
Since its inception, <strong>JARC</strong> has made certain that its homes<br />
were more than "houses" made of wood and brick. It was<br />
imperative that they be comfortable, welcoming, beautiful<br />
and safe.<br />
Over the years, as the population of <strong>JARC</strong> aged, the changing<br />
physical needs of the residents made it necessary to re-think<br />
the physical layout and features of the homes as well.<br />
In 1986, the Shenkman Family Home opened in West<br />
Bloomfield, and it was the first <strong>JARC</strong> home that could<br />
accommodate residents who were in wheelchairs or have<br />
other mobility and medical problems. Low-pile carpeting,<br />
wider hallways and level door thresholds were only a few of<br />
the modifications required to make the Shenkman Home<br />
barrier-free and "resident" friendly.<br />
Although many <strong>JARC</strong> homes were originally two-story or trilevel<br />
dwellings, today all but two homes are ranch-style.<br />
This includes the Ellen Labes Vacation Home located in<br />
Gladwin, Michigan where most of <strong>JARC</strong>'s residents spend<br />
their vacation time.<br />
