Providing Stable Housing for Life Transitions
Housing With Purpose
Co-living is critical for individuals navigating life transitions, including veterans, young adults aging out of foster care, and returning citizens. For these groups, stable housing is often the greatest barrier to employment, stability, and long-term success.
Traditional housing models are frequently rigid, costly, and inaccessible. Thoughtfully structured co-living provides an affordable alternative, offering community, accountability, and dignity. This approach creates calm, respectful environments where individuals can regain footing, rebuild confidence, and move forward.
Our Mission
We provide stable, structured, and affordable co-living for adults navigating life transitions. We remove housing barriers with safe, well-managed homes that promote accountability, respect, and stability, empowering individuals towards independence and long-term success.
Our Vision
We envision communities where housing is a foundation, not an obstacle. We create environments that restore dignity, foster responsibility, and empower individuals to rebuild lives with confidence. Intentional co-living bridges instability and independence, offering a meaningful pathway forward.
Our Impact
With structure, respect, and support, people rise. New Leaf Legacy Living is where new beginnings take root and lasting change starts, transforming lives through supportive housing environments.
Why I Started New Leaf Legacy Living
“Sometimes the difference between surviving and rebuilding is not effort—it’s having a safe place to land.”
New Leaf Legacy Living was created through a combination of lived experience, education, and years of dedicated work across social services and healthcare. With a background in Psychology and Criminal Justice, and direct experience supporting foster youth, veterans, returning citizens, and families in crisis, I have firsthand witnessed how housing instability can profoundly derail lives.
Crucially, I’ve also lived this reality myself—having faced the challenge of losing housing for my children and me. That profound experience shaped my unwavering commitment to creating safe, structured housing environments where people can truly reset, rebuild, and move forward with dignity.
New Leaf Legacy Living exists to provide that vital second chance—a place where accountability meets compassion, and where new beginnings are not just hoped for, but actively take root.

Why This Model Works for Property Owners
New Leaf Legacy Living was designed to simplify leasing while providing consistent, responsible occupancy. Our model removes many of the common challenges property owners face with traditional rentals.
One Lease
You lease the property to one entity—New Leaf Legacy Living. There are no individual tenants on your lease, no multiple contracts, and no confusion. This creates clarity and reduces administrative burden.
One Payer
Rent is paid directly by New Leaf Legacy Living—on time and in full. You are not collecting rent from multiple occupants or managing partial payments. Payment reliability is built into the model.
One Point of Contact
You communicate with one professional operator, not multiple residents. All questions, concerns, and coordination go through us, keeping communication simple and efficient.
Professional Oversight
We manage the home like a business, not a traditional rental. This includes structured screening, furnishing, clear house rules, weekly and random check-ins, and ongoing monitoring to ensure the property remains quiet, clean, and well cared for.
Reduced Vacancy Risk
Because housing demand is built into our program, vacancy risk is handled by us—not the owner.
You receive stable income without gaps, even during resident turnover.
