The mission of Vanguard Landing is to offer a safe, intentional, interactive, and inclusive community where persons with intellectual and developmental differences can thrive and achieve their life’s full potential.

We believe that individuals who may need support to live as independently as possible have the right to choose where they live, how they receive services, and how they engage in work and community life.

Vanguard Landing is an intentional, thoughtfully planned community featuring residential homes designed to promote independence, safety, and belonging. Each cottage operates as its own home, with supports tailored to the needs and preferences of the individuals who live there. In addition to residential living, Vanguard Landing offers on-site amenities, social opportunities, and employment enterprises that residents may choose to participate in based on their person-centered plans and individual goals.

Phase One includes five-bedroom, single-story cottages and one-bedroom townhomes, creating a variety of living options to support differing levels of independence.

Vanguard Landing is expanding access to quality residential and full-life opportunities in Virginia while honoring the principles of inclusion, community integration, and individual choice.

We are proud members of Together for Choice and the Coalition for Community Choice, national organizations advocating for innovative, person-centered housing solutions.
