Residential
Description of the Residential Building
Faith, Hope & Charity’s residential building is a licensed 32-bed ICF/ID (Intermediate Care Facility/Intellectual Disabilities) located in Storm Lake, Iowa. Our facility features four individual homes designed with children in mind. Each home, Faith, Hope, Charity and Love, consists of four bedrooms, a living room, large eat-in kitchen, three large bathrooms, an office, medical room, and a fenced in backyard with a patio. In the middle of the homes is a huge play room known as the MPR or multipurpose room. Just off the MPR the children really enjoy the sensory room.
Up the hall from each of the homes and the MPR is the office area where the nursing, recreation, dietary, housekeeping, maintenance and administrative offices are located.

Faith, Hope & Charity has been there for us whenever we needed them. Over the years they taught Jake life skills during SCL and provided much needed breaks from his negative behaviors. We have been able to relax and enjoy our daughters’ activities knowing that Jake is happy and well cared for.
The skills Jake learned during SCL have carried over into his daily life. We have seen improved listening, following directions and participation in self-care tasks. This makes attending school and appointments, and participating in “outings,” more pleasant and predictable (a good thing!). It has allowed us to include Jake in many family plans and his sisters’ activities with much more positive, less stressful results (for all). During the past year and a half, we’ve taken Jake to ISU Football Games including the Insight Bowl in Arizona. Not very long ago we would not have dreamed this would be possible! Thank you Faith, Hope & Charity for being there for all the families you serve.Patti, parent of Jake
