Welcome to DIA Independent Living Housing

Our program is dedicated to providing safe, supportive, and affordable housing for individuals who are working toward independence and stability.

We support adults who may have experienced homelessness, domestic violence, or crisis situations. In our shared living environment, residents regain stability, rebuild their independence, and work toward their long-term goals.

We provide affordable housing with the right balance of structure and freedom — maintaining a safe, substance-free community while respecting residents’ autonomy and privacy.

“Our mission is to create a place where individuals feel safe, supported, and empowered as they move forward toward a better future.”
