This is why we would really need to draw up actual blue prints,
descriptions and a document stating the purpose of building this even
before trying to get funding.  Sure I'm good at presenting stuff but in
this case I must have stuff on paper to have people buy it.  Not for the
purpose of just selling, having it on paper would help get more ideas
for a final draft.  What we already have is great but we would welcome
other people's input.  Who knows if we can build and operate
successfully in Grand Forks North Dakota, I don't see why we couldn't in
other places using the same plans.

Thanks,
Anthony

These Adult Family Homes sound a lot like the residential center that my
parents and I would love to build, that would take parts of a group home

We even have drawings of the building we would want to build, it's a
square building with 4 town houses coming out of the corners, that would
both have access to the outside and plus the inner core.  Each town



Yes, me too, Anthony! That sounds like a wonderful plan.
Perhaps you could get funding for it from a company that helps pwd to
start
their own businesses. Let me find this guys name for you. I heard him
speak at
the supported life conference a few weeks ago.
