History

Opened in 1974, the El Paso State Supported Living Center answered the community need for a long-term care facility for people with mental retardation in West Texas. The center is home to 150 people who live in eight cottages and three 16-bed units. Located in the City of El Paso and serving El Paso County, the center employs approximately 300 people.
