About Us

About Us

Community Living North Grenville supports people to reach their full potential and enjoy all aspects of community life. We offer several services and supports throughout the communities of North Grenville and the surrounding areas.

Founded in 1967 by parents and community members who wanted an alternative living arrangement for their son, or daughter.  Families remain the backbone and strength of the community living movement. We operate through the governance of a local volunteer board of directors representing families and individuals who are supported by Community Living North Grenville, and the broader community.

Community Living Ontario

Community Living Ontario (formerly Ontario Association for Community Living) is a non-profit organization in Ontario that is devoted to supporting over 12,000 individuals with intellectual disabilities through the memberships in 117 affiliated local associations such as Community Living North Grenville.

The name “Community Living” reflects the growing understanding that it is an individual’s right to live a fully integrated life within the community- to go to school, to work, to enjoy recreation and to have an active retirement. “Community Living” reflects the aspirations of persons with developmental intellectual disabilities and their right to be included in the fabric of community life.

Community Living North Grenville is a non-profit, charitable organization and operates through funding primarily from the Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services, along with local fundraising and donations.
