Christian Residential Opportunities and Social Services (Cross, Inc.)

Christian Residential Opportunities and Social Services, also known as Cross, Inc, celebrated our 37th year of operations in 2024. We have three Personal Care Homes that provide 24/7 residential services to adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. Our ministry started with our Personal Care Home we call “Grace Home” located in Shippensburg, PA which opened in 1987. We have since expanded to open two other homes in St. Thomas and Dillsburg to serve this population.

Here at Cross, our goal is to create developmental environments to support opportunities for intellectual, spiritual, and emotional growth based on Christian values. At Cross we have a motto: “do life together” which is much different than just providing care for residents; we want to go above and beyond the typical model for social services.

One way Cross, Inc strives to live out our motto is that each Personal Care Home has House Parent(s) who reside with the residents in their home. We firmly believe that each resident is a unique blessing to this world and has many gifts and talents to offer to our community. We also make every effort to live alongside our residents and engage with them in their preferred activities, meals, social events, church and anything else we can do to give them the best lives possible.
