Live at Marbridge

One of only three communities in the United States — and the only one in Texas — offering a true lifespan continuum of care for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Established in 1953, Marbridge is a non-profit residential community that offers transitional and lifetime care to adults with a wide range of cognitive disabilities and provides them opportunities to learn, experience and achieve a whole new life.

  • I love the way that each resident can live their own best life in a community of friends. Our residents are active and get to experience so many things. We look for ways for each one of them to be a success.

  • At Marbridge, every heart matters. The loud ones, the quiet ones, the fast ones, the slow ones. Mine grows, knowing they’re all loved and cared for.

  • My first year as a volunteer Special Olympics basketball coach was in 1995.  I assisted Hughie Shaw with the original Marbridge basketball team. Little did I know 31 years ago how that year would change my life. The relationships I have made are very special to me. I get great joy and balance to my life by giving a few hours per week. I would encourage you to give it a try.
