New Homes to Open in Four Communities in Nebraska

#
Mosaic is partnering with the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services (NDHHS) to make dreams come true for 66 people who have lived much of their lives at the Beatrice State Developmental Center. With help from generous donors, Mosaic is building 11 new homes, six in Omaha, two in Grand Island, two in Norfolk and one in York, giving people the opportunity to live close to family and friends. Mosaic has named the initiative Framing Dreams.

For 23 years, Deb Ruda of Fremont was separated by miles and time from her daughter, Melanie Johnson, who was a resident at the Beatrice State Developmental Center. Now, with her daughter living in Mosaic housing that is just a few minutes away, Ruda could not be more pleased.

"I see her everyday," Ruda said. "I can see what she does every day. I feel like I am a lot more involved in her life."
