Batesville, IN and provides stable, safe and secure housing for individuals with developmental
disabilities. New Horizons operates 10 homes across Southeastern Indiana. Funds from this grant will
help with essential home repairs within the community living homes where their services are offered.
The third grant of $27,500 has been awarded to LifeTime Resources, Inc., located in Dillsboro, IN.
LifeTime Resources is dedicated to promoting housing stability and overall well-being for older adults

Switzerland. Funds from this grant will help expand and enhance their efforts of safe housing and
supportive services these individuals need to thrive.
