About True Friends, Inc.

True Friends, Inc. is a client-centered company dedicated to helping people and communities thrive through personalized cognitive, behavioral, and wellness support.

We serve individuals, families, care professionals, and residential programs navigating cognitive, developmental, behavioral, and life-stage challenges, including intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) and complex care needs.

From cognitive development education and therapeutic yoga to domestic caregiver employment screening and short- to mid-term furnished housing, our integrated services are designed to support growth, wellness, stability, and peace of mind across home, academic, residential, and community settings.

Our work is grounded in a simple belief: every individual is unique, and effective support must be thoughtfully tailored to the whole person and their environment.

Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, True Friends, Inc. conducts thorough, client-centered needs assessments that consider strengths, challenges, goals, and daily living contexts. From there, we develop precision-based cognitive, behavioral, supported-living, and wellness plans designed to be practical, ethical, and sustainable.

Our Vision

True Friends, Inc. envisions a world where individuals and families receive thoughtful, ethical, and personalized support that honors their dignity, strengthens their resilience, and supports meaningful participation in daily life and community.

“We founded True Friends, Inc. on the belief that real support begins with listening. When we understand the whole person—their strengths, challenges, and environment—we can build care that truly helps people thrive.”
