Become a Life Sharing Host Family with Abound Health

Make a Lasting Impact by Welcoming Someone Into Your Home and Daily Life
Location: Williamsport, PA & Surrounding Communities
Position Type: Contract
Organization: Abound Health

Abound Health is seeking a caring, structured, and routine-oriented Host Family in or near Williamsport, Pennsylvania to support a 26-year-old individual who is ready to grow their independence through Life Sharing. They currently live with family, and while this is not an emergency placement, his team believes they will thrive with a non-relative who can offer consistent expectations, patient guidance, and a calm, supportive home environment.

This opportunity is ideal for individuals or families who value routine, enjoy community involvement, and are committed to helping someone build confidence and daily living skills through steady, relationship-based support.

He is a capable, friendly, and community-minded young adult who benefits from structure and predictable routines. At home, he may become argumentative when prompted by family members, but he responds well to clear expectations and consistent follow-through from non-relatives. He does best in environments where routines are steady, communication is calm, and household expectations are clear. Remaining close to Williamsport is important, as regular visits with his family are a positive and meaningful part of his life.

He would thrive with a Host Family who enjoys:

• Video games
• Music, especially local concerts and First Friday events
• Getting out into the community for walkable activities
• Learning new skills, including his goal of learning to play guitar
• Staying active and engaged through nearby outings, events, and hobbies

He enjoys being part of a household that participates in community life and encourages him to explore his interests.
