Pomeroy Recreation & Rehabilitation Center and Helpers Community, Inc. formed a partnership in 2019 to open two residential homes for up to 11 adults with intellectual disabilities, plus on-site staff. Helpers owns the properties, and Pomeroy leases, staffs, and populates the homes which are located across from Golden Gate Park. In San Francisco, there is never enough affordable care homes for adults with ID, but together these two organizations are working to make safe places for as many people as possible.
