The Angelus group home facilities are located in Hudson, Florida, on 17 beautiful wooded acres. Not an institution, The Angelus is a group of homes that are all located on the same rural, nature-rich grounds, designed to allow individuals with physical challenges the opportunity to safely visit their neighbors and friends.
With approximately 3 miles of sidewalks and paved roads on the grounds, individuals in wheelchairs can safely get around among the five group homes and visit other buildings and their friends on the grounds to participate in events.
The grounds also include the main office building, a solar- and propane-heated indoor pool, Lake Little John, a community garden, and a pavilion on the property used for various events such as concerts, picnics, family gatherings, weddings, and more.
The Angelus has five group homes with the ability to serve 40 individuals. All homes at The Angelus are co-ed, but the individual bedrooms are either male or female.
