BOARDMAN Members of Dylan's House were on the site of a groundbreaking for a new duplex planned to house adults with autism.

The duplex would have four bedrooms on each side, aiming to provide around-the-clock caregiver support for up to eight adults.

The project was made possible by several community partners, including:

Sam and Donna Boak, who donated the land

Ramunno Builders, the project's general contractor

Purple Cat, which will staff and manage the home

Trisha How of the Home Builders and Remodelers Association of the Valley, who named the home its 2026 "Project of the Year"
