Community Living Mississauga

Community Living Mississauga is a non-profit, charitable organization which provides support to more than 2300 individuals who have an intellectual disability and their families. We are governed by a volunteer Board of Directors consisting of people we support, family members and concerned members of the community. Our philosophy is that all people will live in a state of dignity and respect, share in all elements of living in a community which is welcoming, accepting and inclusive of all individuals. All people will have the freedom to make choices and decisions that enable them to achieve self-determination. We believe that people who have an intellectual disability have a right to live in the community and to participate actively in community life. Each individual, regardless of disability, should enjoy the full rights of citizenship and the full experience of membership in the community.
