A sampling of STAR’s Residential Services include:

O'Brien House

This charming brick a-frame house in Weston is home to four adults. The house has been restructured for total wheelchair accessibility, ensuring that occupants have total use of their environment. It is also extremely convenient , located adjacent to the main Weston shopping area. Clients can take full advantage of the town’s opportunities, and are involved in church, community organizations as well as being known as good neighbors.

Ryan House

Ryan House is home to five lucky STAR participants. The focus of the home is on the “quality” of the lives of the residents in their senior years. Ryan House caters to the growing needs of our aging population. When not attending the STAR Workshop or Senior Services program, residents engage in group and individual activities such as growing flowers or vegetables, exercising in the pool, attending dances, concerts and the occasional festival.

Norwest Apartments

Open since 1984, Norwest serves people who live their lives with supervised independence. Norwest was established as an interim residence for people who would eventually live in their own apartments. Many former residents have done just that. These spacious apartments are conveniently located close to shopping, public transportation and the STAR facility on Wolfpit Avenue, so individuals can easily attend the STAR Workshop or other programs.
