Narrative

The Community Living Program is a unique opportunity for people with developmental and intellectual disabilities to live and thrive in a family environment. The person is included. Their opinions are valued across regular day-to-day decision making. This ensures that they feel welcome and respected as members of the household. People are also encouraged to participate in:

• hobbies and recreation
• spiritual/religious affiliations of their choice
• develop friendships

At Viability, we understand the difference between a house and a home. We ensure a potential match is safe and clean. We equally hold to high priorities of ensuring the home provider is caring, supportive, and respectful. They are eager to include the incoming people in all aspects of their home life. This is the cornerstone of the Community Living Program.
