Legal Question in Business Law in New York

My colleagues and I are in the process of trying to convert a private residence into an Assisted Living Residence as well as start an Assisted Living program.

We are interested in servicing the developmentally disabled, mentally disabled population or Foster Children/Group Homes in the metro NY Area, starting with the Queens residence currently owned. I would like to meet with an attorney that is familiar with this initiative so we can 1) start a certified Non Profit Agency 2) the convert the privately owned residence to an assisted living facility... I would like to keep the residence private....

How do I find out if an area is over saturated for a particular Developmentally Disabled population, or any population that has a need?

The three story residence only has one level that is Wheel Chair accessible does that prevent us from being able to service the Developmentally Disabled population and can this residence be privately owned or must it be owned by a non-profit agency?

Is there an organization that I can contact in order to help gets some more information?
