WeBUILT

Our focus at WeBUILT is creating opportunities for new life experiences and friendships that empower individuals to be successful in community living. We pride ourselves in offering natural support within the community, as well as a robust set of activities. While each community can be customized to fit the unique housing population needs, we have seen residents develop great indepedence by living in the community.

The concept of WeBUILT was developed and executed by founder Ann Wilkinson's and her Partner Patrice Lester. Ann's journey began when she searched for long term housing for her son. This journey quickly revealed the gaps in available housing opportunities for adults that experience disabilities. She knew that she needed something that was going to provide predictability and well as consistency for her son. A home for him to be comfortable and safe, as well as age in place. She created that community in WeBUILT.

Ann founded Next Step Strategies, a non-profit public charity to continue to support her passion. Next Step Strategies purpose is to grow WeBUILT communities, while establishing this as the standard of living for adults who experience disabilities. Next Step Strategies has committed itself and its resources to helping others that want to continue to build communities.
