Who We Serve: Adult Family Homes serve adults who need help with daily activities but prefer a smaller, more intimate setting than a larger facility. Residents often include older adults, adults with disabilities, or those with chronic health conditions.

Licensing: Typically licensed by the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA).

Payment Options: In Michigan, Medicaid may help pay for assisted living through the MI Choice Waiver. Eligibility is based on both financial and functional criteria. Contact Michigan Department of Health and Human Services or visit https://www.michigan.gov/mdhhs/assistance-programs/medicaid/long-term-care to learn about eligibility requirements and how to apply. Wait lists are common for waiver programs, so applying early is recommended.

Families researching assisted living options should verify the facility's current license status, review any inspection reports, and schedule a visit to assess whether the environment and services meet their loved one's needs.
