"You would be surprised just by the gratification you take home from day one. I loved it. It took a lot to get used to it because it's new, but now, I wouldn't trade it for the world. It's the best job. It is. The best job in the world."

Daughter of Helen Hill, Elder
Moorberg Cottage, St. John's Lutheran Ministries

"My mother had been in assisted living and she became almost a recluse. She wouldn't come out of her room, it was hard for her to meet other people. She would come out only with my brother or myself. Since the day she's been here, she's been out of her room, she goes down and she eats and she plays bingo and she does puzzles and she is, you know, very active. And mom's health has improved also, gaining weight... Mom just changed..."

"It means a lot to me. It's good to have somebody close to you. If you need something, want to talk to them, you can."

"The Shahbazim were like family to my mother. They were like her own children. They arrived in the morning, they went in for a hug, they went off their shift, before they left they went in for a hug, they were so sweet and tender and gentle and happy and she gave that back to them... it was contagious. "

"To have my mother-in-law here has been just a great sense of relief. And it helps her have more of a peace of mind also because they are so close to her and so caring. And she doesn't have to be afraid anymore like she was in her own home. And if I'm not here, at least, you know, she's okay. Knowing that the next best thing is right on the other side of the door.

"Any number of people can design or build the architecture but that doesn't bring about the revolutionary change in culture that The Green House Project provides. For us to be able to leverage the successes and failures of so many other adopters is invaluable. The Green House Project has the expertise and structure to help manage our process in a manner that gives our project the highest possibility of success. "

"We have been able to move forward with the development of our Green House project much faster and avoid costly mistakes with the assistance of our Green House Guide. The Green House Project has the expertise to help us through the planning process and overcome hurdles we wouldn't have been able to otherwise. "

Director of Development
Legacy Village

"The Green House model has given us the framework to create a workplace where our staff feels empowered and they feel ownership of the home as well as the outcome of the care they provide. In the Green House home, the elders are doing what they want to do and have so much self determination, and as a result, they have a wonderful quality of life. "
