We are pleased to announce that CLV has received a two year grant from United Way. The funds are to support CLV’s newly developed Autism Services program for youth between the ages of 13-19. This additional funding will allow us to enhance supports, information and resources for families who have a child with autism. With the help of United Way we are building capacity, decreasing risks and increasing social ties! Thank you United Way and all the donors to this great fundraising organization. For more information about this program please go to: http://communitylivingvictoria.ca/youthservices.php |
Who We Are
On December 16, 1955, a group of dedicated parents founded what is now called Community Living Victoria. Today, as the largest non-profit community living service provider on Vancouver Island, Community Living Victoria provides a range of support services to children and adults with developmental disabilities and their families.
Our work is guided by our values, experience and history and draws from strong roots in the community. Community Living Victoria recognizes the rights of everyone to have a full range of life choices, including access to education, affordable and appropriate housing, leisure options, gainful employment and participation in the community. A healthy community encourages the involvement of everyone.
our mission
Community Living Victoria supports people with developmental disabilities together with their families, support networks and the community by promoting full citizenship.
