Networx was founded by Deborah Callahan in June of 2007, with services beginning as of September of 2007. Deborah received extensive support from three already existing Supported Living Agencies, Creative Support Alternatives, Diverse Journeys, and Life Works who were all instrumental in helping the vision of Networx to become a reality.

Networx, Life Works and Creative Support Alternatives have developed an informal alliance designed to share the gifts and resources that the respective agencies have to offer. The three agencies have found that by joining together and relying on each other they are better able to remain small, viable, and true to their values. The agency Directors remain dedicated to further developing this alliance as an innovative way to strengthen each agency and to promote a model that provides another way for Supported Living to survive in tough economic times while staying true to the values of Supported Living.

Networx is committed to continue as a small, person-centered, values based agency serving people with intensive support needs.
