Sweetwater Spectrum’s pilot project is located in the city of Sonoma and opened in 2013.  The site is 2.79 acres and is located 4 blocks west of the city’s downtown plaza, encouraging local community integration.  The campus includes:

  • Five homes for a total capacity of twenty residents. Four homes with four bedrooms in each home, part of the original campus finished in 2013, and a new duplex which was finished in 2023.
  • A community center – a single-level 2,300 square foot, common house – integrates a community space, kitchen, exercise studio, media room, and a library.
  • An outdoor pool and 2 hot tubs.
  • A shade canopy/sensory garden – a large shade structure framed by planter boxes and picnic tables. This space was designed to facilitate special social events, enrichment activities and daily resident use.
  • Enrichment programs and opportunities are provided on site, and coordinated off-site. They are tailored to our residents’ individual needs, encouraging choice and community. Through personal choice, we foster a life with purpose for our residents.
