FORWARD - Friends Or Relatives With Autism & Related Disabilities

FORWARD (Friends Or Relatives With Autism & Related Disabilities) is an independent 501(c) 3 nonprofit founded in 2014 by a group of concerned citizens whose common goal is to help meet the critical housing needs of adults with Autism and related disabilities. FORWARD is developing a housing community built, owned and managed by the nonprofit sector, with funding from government, businesses, foundations and individuals. The project, FORWARD at the Rock, will provide new specialized housing for eight Cape Cod residents eligible for state disability services, and the project will also demonstrate an approach to affordable housing that meets the needs of this underserved population.
