Residential

The Journey at Pabst Farms

A new residential community for adults with IDD—designed to uplift, empower, and connect

Home, Reimagined

The Journey at Pabst Farms is more than a place to live. It’s a bold vision for what’s possible when adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) are given not just housing, but a true sense of belonging.

Located in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin, this first-of-its-kind residential community is designed for adults who are ready to live with greater independence, purpose, and joy, encouragement by compassionate staff, embraced by peers, and surrounded by a welcoming neighborhood.

A Community That Feels Like Home

Every detail has been thoughtfully planned to make daily life comfortable, engaging, and fulfilling for adults with IDD.

Residents will enjoy:

  • Private one- and two-bedroom apartments
  • Beautifully designed indoor and outdoor gathering spaces
  • An on-site restaurant offering breakfast and dinner
  • Fitness and wellness areas
  • Game and media rooms
  • Outdoor basketball and pickleball courts
  • Fire pit and patio spaces for community meals and conversation
  • A secure, staffed environment with 24/7 oversight

Here, connection and independence go hand in hand. Routines feel empowering. Relationships feel like family.

A Place To Grow

The Journey at Pabst Farms is built for adults eager to take the next step toward independence. It’s for individuals who thrive with structure, friendship, and the opportunity to be part of something bigger.

Ideal residents include adults age 21+ who:

  • Are medically stable and able to live safely with some support
  • Are ready for greater independence in a social, structured environment
  • Have natural supports or paid caregivers in place
  • Want to live in a community that sees them, values them, and supports encourages their growth

Residency will follow an application process to ensure safety, compatibility, and a strong community fit.

Everyday Life, Enriched

Residents will also have full access to the Journey21 Enrichment Center, a vibrant 10,000-square-foot hub located on campus. Programs include:

  • Life skills and independent living
  • Creative expression through art, music, and movement
  • Fitness and wellness
  • Social clubs and seasonal outings
  • Volunteerism and community engagement

This is where passions are discovered, friendships are formed, and confidence grows day by day.
