The AFIL way is to promote independent living.

Being independent is not easy, but once mastered, the skills AFIL teaches can help ensure mentally challenged young people live a more fulfilling life.

AFIL residents must be capable of competitive employment and have an income that covers room and board plus their incidental expenses.

Fees are set to allow the individual to pay their own way.
