| EGH is turning 35 this year! |
It's an exciting year at EGH, as we're celebrating our 35th anniversary. We've had a great time reuniting with our founders and some of the individuals that helped EGH come into being back in 1977. Reflecting on our long history has helped us keep in touch with our roots, as well as plant new seeds for the future. To commemorate this year of celebration, EGH is holding an anniversary picnic at French Park in Plymouth on June 24th from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. We invite all members of the EGH family, past and present, to attend! More details to follow!

Welcome to Episcopal Group Homes, Inc!
Neither the conditions of a disability nor the perceptions of others should unnecessarily limit any person’s potential for growth and development. Each person has the right to move in pursuit of his or her dreams at his or her own rate.
The mission of Episcopal Group Homes is to provide quality residential services to persons with developmental disabilities, creating for them a supportive and challenging environment and the opportunity to develop
skills essential to functioning as members of a community.
Episcopal Group Homes recognizes that an individual’s level of independence can have a direct effect on his or her self-esteem, and that self-esteem can be a determining factor in motivation and learning. Independence in this sense is not only defined by a physical living environment, but also by one's own life decisions and the quality of that person’s relationships with others.
The philosophy of EGH strongly encourages skill development, relationship building and self-determination, as opposed to simply providing a protective environment. Training in self-help and social skills, along with opportunities to experience the natural consequences of decisions and behavior, promote growth toward maximum self-sufficiency.
