The Arc of Essex County is excited to announce plans for a new supervised apartment program at Hillcrest Farms in Verona, with a tentative opening in fall 2027.

The program will offer one two-bedroom apartment and one three-bedroom apartment in a licensed residential setting, combining the independence of apartment-style living with structured support tailored to each individual’s needs and personal goals. Conveniently located near downtown Verona, residents will have easy access to local shops, restaurants, and other community amenities.

The Arc is currently seeking potential residents who have some independent living skills and are interested in an apartment-style living arrangement. The program will provide opportunities for residents to build on their independence while receiving the assistance and support they need to thrive.

Families and individuals interested in learning more or arranging a meet and greet are encouraged to contact Adriana Pocius at apocius@arcessex.org.
