EPIC is an organization that places those with developmental disabilities with host families after that person decides they want to live outside their own home or a group home setting.

Hilary Frank is Community Options Recuiter with EPIC, and says they've been placing those with developmental disabilities in host family homes for over 35 years.

Frank says their organization is looking for host families in our local area.

Frank added there is a process where both the person who is developmentally disabled, their family, and the host family, all go thru in order to make the transition a good fit.

Frank appeared as a guest on the WTIM Morning Show.
