Our goal is for people who have an intellectual disability to live in a state of dignity, share in all elements of living in the community and have the opportunity to participate effectively. Community Living Ontario proudly serves and advocates on behalf of more than 12,000 members across the province. We promote and champion the inherent value, dignity, and human rights of people who have an intellectual disability.
