Community Living Toronto has been a source of support for people with an intellectual disability and their families since 1948.
We offer a wide range of services including respite, person-directed planning, employment supports, supported living, and community-based activities to over 4,000 people and their families across the city of Toronto.
The community living movement began with families who wanted their children to live in the community, rather than in institutions.
Today, Community Living Toronto continues to advocate for full inclusion and belonging by providing opportunities for people with an intellectual disability to live the life they choose.
