CRi, formerly Community Residences, originated in the mid-70's by Arlington Virginia residents, churches & government leaders wanting to change the institutional treatment of individuals with mental illness. They believed individuals would best be supported in their home communities, in small residential settings, close to family and opportunities for community interaction. In the last forty-plus years, CRi services have evolved, and today CRi is a recognized leader delivering services to individuals with intellectual/developmental disabilities and/or mental illness (individuals) diagnoses throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia. As a community partner CRi collaborates with public and private partners to provide services individuals need so that they may live and thrive in their community. As a community leader, CRi is a passionate, innovative, ethical, well-managed and growing non-profit meeting the needs of individuals by providing programs and services that support personal growth, removing barriers and helping individuals with dignity and respect. In 2022, CRi provided supports and services to over 800 individuals, through the provision of medical, therapeutic, educational, vocational, residential and integrative recreational services to the formation of vital relational communities through which our consumers experience greater independence, dignity, fulfillment and happiness. CRi provides services throughout Northern Virginia, including the cities of Arlington, Alexandria, and Falls Church, Arlington, Fairfax, Loudoun, Prince William and Richmond counties. In Maryland, mental health services are offered throughout Anne Arundel, Baltimore and Montgomery counties. To learn more about CRi, visit our website at www.MyCRi.org
