The Arc of Putnam County is committed to offering the highest quality care in residential services. Group homes at Kennedy Street, River Street, Westover, John’s Place, and Silver Lake provide residential services and support to adults with a primary diagnosis of intellectual and/or developmental disabilities. Our supervised apartment complex at Tyrrell Oaks provides full residential support, uniquely delivered in individualized apartments.
People with disabilities need and want jobs, just like everyone else. And people with disabilities make excellent employees. Local area businesses such as Lowe’s, Pizza Hut, Wal-Mart, Publix, Putnam Community Hospital, Beck Automotive, Sonny’s BBQ, First Baptist Church, St. Johns River State College, St. Johns Water Management District, and The Palatka Daily News, have found these employees to be important assets to their corporate success.
