Our Story

Founded on Love, Built with Purpose

In 2015, Aaron Starks founded Gloria Homes in honor of his grandmother, Gloria Hobbs (1941–2009), who opened her own home to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Her legacy of unconditional love and open doors lives on through every stay, every meal, and every moment of care at Gloria Homes.
