KINGSTON, MA…
For more than 40 years Nonotuck Resource Associates has helped transform the lives of hundreds of people with intellectual and physical disabilities by offering the personalized service of shared living and Adult Family Care. To meet the ever increasing demand from families for these non-traditional, value based services, Nonotuck has added staff at its South Shore regional office.
New staff members include:

We are fortunate to have them for the families we work with on the South Shore,” said George Fleischner, executive director of Nonotuck Resource Associates, Inc.
