A Decade of Experience
Just US Family Group Home
I am Rhonda Arinde, Executive Director of Just US Family Group Home. I have 27 years experience working with special needs children and adults. My calling in life is to advocate and provide quality care for our special needs community. My life changed 12 years ago when my son, Calvin, came into my life. I became the mother of a special needs child.I learned first hand how our community resources were lacking in our community for people with special needs. This void ignited a fire in me to become an advocate for those people with special needs in the Bogalusa community. With such passion, I filled a need in the community by opening Just US Family Group Home. My desire was to provide a place of love and nurturing, a HOME, for high functioning adults. Just US Family Group Home is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization and your support is a key in helping make the group home a success in Bogalusa. We will provide a loving, nurturing environment as well as give parents peace of mind.
Our Purpose: To provide an environment of love and nurturing residence for High Functioning Adults.
"The LOVE, the VISION, the COMMITMENT to the special needs Community."

In family life, love is the oil that eases friction, the cement that binds closer together and the music that brings harmony.
“When you focus on someone’s disability you’ll overlook their abilities, beauty and uniqueness. Once you learn to accept and love them for who they are, you subconsciously learn to love yourself unconditionally.” ― Yvonne Pierre, The Day My Soul Cried: A Memoir
“So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable.” – Christopher Reeve
“I do not have a disability, I have a gift! Others may see it as a disability, but I see it as a challenge. This challenge is a gift because I have to become stronger to get around it, and smarter to figure out how to use it; others should be so lucky.” ― Shane E. Bryan
