“If you are considering Sponsored Residential services for your loved one, I highly recommend Lisa Escoto and her company, Family-Run Individual Group Homes of Virginia, LLC, based in Fairfax, VA. Navigating the system of support for an adult child with significant challenges can be an overwhelming and complex journey, but working with Lisa has made all the difference for our family. I initially reached out to Lisa specifically to learn about her company’s services after having previously spoken to three other providers. From our very first interaction, Lisa demonstrated an exceptional level of dedication, empathy, and professionalism.
What sets Lisa apart is her comprehensive approach to support. She provides invaluable guidance across every stage of the process, offering technical support, structured training, and the steady emotional guidance necessary to navigate the regulatory and administrative requirements tied to the Community Living (CL) Medicaid Waiver. She is remarkably knowledgeable, always friendly, and consistently thorough with her follow-up. Lisa makes sure no detail is overlooked and no question goes unanswered.
Lisa brings something truly rare and powerful to her work: genuine lived experience. As a mother who supports her own disabled adult daughter, she understands the deep emotional responsibility, the high standards of dignity, and the daily realities that parents face. This blending of professional expertise and personal insight creates an environment of trust, understanding, and advocacy.
I wholeheartedly recommend Lisa and her company to any family seeking Sponsored Residential services. Her commitment to empowering families to access the supports they need to provide quality care to their loved ones with developmental disabilities is truly extraordinary.”

“We have been talking to other providers before we found Lisa. And I am so glad we decided to go with her service.
Lisa has made the application process and the training so easy for us to follow. And Lisa understands our needs and expectations.
I would highly recommend her service. Thank you so much, Lisa.”
