Work with us and Help Make a Difference!

Serving over 360 people in San Francisco, Marin, and Sonoma Counties, there are often job opportunities at Lifehouse. We operate nine group homes for people with developmental disabilities and provide support to numerous individuals who live and work independently in the community. Some of our homes offer around the clock care for people with profound developmental disabilities, while other homes serve as a transition to independent living and provide training in cooking, money management, transportation, time management, and other basic living skills.

Everyone has a beautiful story to share. A Full Life is a collection of inspirational videos featuring the individuals supported by Lifehouse telling their own stories and truths as they learn and grow within the community.

Meet Amy! She is an outgoing 36-year-old living in Marin County and has been supported by Lifehouse for 14 years. Amy has no shortage of hobbies which include performance arts, drawing and participating in multiple sports in the Special Olympics. She and her roommates at Laurel Place are a tight knit group of friends that support and care for one another like family. Amy’s drive for independence is encouraged by the Lifehouse staff who work with her on a daily basis to help her with tasks like cooking, laundry, and budgeting. These skills will help her reach her goal of one day having her own apartment.

Please consider a donation to Lifehouse today to ensure that we are able to continue providing high quality support services to individuals like Amy in our community.
