About Friendship Ark Homes

Vision
Friendship Ark Homes will lead Story County in providing outstanding services to an increased number of adults with intellectual challenges within a spiritual, nurturing family environment.

It is also our vision, through the practice of hospitality, to welcome a variety of nondisabled people as visitors. Our goal is to become a door through which Iowa State University students, visiting international scholars, and many other people can enter the lives of people with disabilities for a short time, to gain a vision for inclusive communities where people with and without disabilities are treated equally and with dignity. In this way, we will extend our impact throughout the country and the world.
