Springboard Landings is creating a new affordable housing development that will provide a much-needed permanent housing option for adults with developmental disabilities, integrated into a supportive community. Located in the Bellevue neighborhood of Nashville, the 24-unit building will include nineteen units dedicated to adults with developmental disabilities ("Landers") and five units for residents without disabilities, including a salaried Resident Services Coordinator. The design includes ample common spaces for supportive programs and activities to foster a vibrant community for all residents.

The project aims to offer both independence and community for residents who often face limited earning potential and social isolation. Using a "bring your own services" model, Springboard Landings will connect residents with outside services, and staff will collaborate with providers to offer onsite programming. Social activities will also be planned to combat isolation and build community. This innovative project will fill a gap between shared living settings and independent market-rate housing, addressing a critical need for members of the community living with developmental disabilities.

Each one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment will include a full kitchen, living area, and washer/dryer connections. The apartments will surround a common area on both floors for group dining, gathering, recreation, and peer support. The communal space on the first floor will have a large shared kitchen and staff office. All apartments will have a connection to the common areas to encourage residents with developmental disabilities (“Landers”) and their neighbors to meet and interact to combat social isolation.
