Dream home for a good life for 7 disabled residents
Since 2007, Het Droomhuis has been a small-scale form of housing for people with an intellectual or multiple disability. The Dream House was created on the initiative of the parents.

All residents receive professional support and guidance from a permanent team of employees who are employed by care provider 's‑Heerenloo.
