Residential Life
At Peacehaven, we believe everyone deserves more than housing.
They deserve belonging.
What began with one home, Susan’s View, is growing into an integrated residential village where people of all abilities can live, work, grow, and thrive together.
From Susan’s View to a Growing Village
In 2014, we opened Susan’s View, Peacehaven’s first residential home designed to support and celebrate adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). Named for our founder Susan Elliott, this home welcomed five individuals into a life connected by a shared purpose.
Those original members have taught us that community is not built through programs alone, but through shared meals, rhythms, friendships, and everyday life together.
Our Housing Goals
Peacehaven will soon build beyond a single home. We’re currently designing a housing ecosystem that is:
- Inclusive of floor plans for people of all abilities
- Accessible to families with varying financial resources
- Designed for independence and connection
- Built as a model for communities across North Carolina
This vision aligns with the broader Different Together master plan for campus expansion where new housing will be part of a thriving network of programs, services, and community spaces that support life at Peacehaven.
