Richcroft creates inclusive residential opportunities for people living with disabilities. We started our business in 1983 with eight residential units, and we have grown to become one of the largest residential and support service providers in Central Maryland.
Today, we house 168 people and offer support services to 75 more. We enable people to live a stable and productive life in beautiful residential neighborhoods that anyone would be proud to call home. At Richcroft, we help people live their lives in safety and freedom.
All Richcroft homes are located in safe and supportive neighborhoods to ensure security and maximum freedom of movement. We have built a number of barrier-free homes for people who want greater independence and opportunity. People with intellectual and developmental disabilities often flourish in this kind of environment, but many struggle to find this type of accommodation. We combine safety and support with freedom and respect to empower people in their own home environment.
At Richcroft, we have access to leading supervisors across all levels of our organization. We have live-in supervisors in many of our homes, and we provide ongoing training and support to ensure a proactive and impactful team. We believe in professional responsibility, mutual respect, and innovation across all levels of our operation. Our live-in supervisors are able to provide integrated values, operational stability, functional support, and loving care for all residents at all times.

- Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
- Blindness/Severe Visual Impairment
- Cerebral Palsy
- Deafness/Severe Hearing Impairment
