San Antonio Residential Care Homes (SARCH) is an organization of residential, personal care, MHMR, Adult Foster Care and assisted living in partnership with local businesses interested in the health and well being of the elderly and disabled persons. SARCH is committed to promoting an environment favorable to the well-being of our clients.

Most homes/facilities provide housing, meals, laundry, medication supervision and help with activities of daily living.

This is an ideal situation for some family-oriented individuals who cannot live independently, but do not require institutional care.

Meetings are held monthly and we welcome visitors to attend! Please check out our Calendar of Events for meeting location and dates.
