At Unity House
We Empower People
Everyone deserves a place where they belong. A home.
Unity House provides housing and other services to enable people with disabilities to live their best lives.
Unity House provides transitional and permanent housing, respite care, and rehabilitative and employment services for people with mental illnesses, developmental disabilities, and/or substance use disorders from which they are recovering. We partner with them to develop their skills, supporting them so they can live their best lives.
Founded in 1977, Unity House is dedicated to providing person-centered services and programs. We support more than 750 people in seven central New York counties (Cayuga, Tompkins, Wayne, Onondaga, Seneca, Tioga and Ontario).
Because our mission is so important, we’re also dedicated to empowering our employees. Together, we’re innovating, educating and advocating for a strong community that values people of all abilities.
Our Mission
Unity House’s mission is to empower and enrich the lives of people in recovery, coping with a mental illness, and/or diagnosed with a developmental disability. This is accomplished by offering supports and services in an inclusive, person-centered environment.
Our Vision
All individuals are respected and lead lives of personal fulfillment and acceptance within our community.

Honesty - Integrity - Respect
