Community Living Hamilton

Community Living Hamilton Community Living Hamilton is a not-for-profit organization and registered charity that offers a full range of services to people with special needs.

We are one of the largest not-for-profits in Hamilton; each year we provide service to approximately 1,000 children, teens, adults and families. Over 60 years ago, Community Living Hamilton was founded by a group of mothers who came together in a church basement to discuss how they could support each other and their sons and daughters with special needs. Since then, we have continued to establish programs and services that have enabled our clients to fully participate and contribute to their community. We continue to promote full inclusion through person-directed planning; which promotes independence, personal choice and assisting our clients lead the lives they want. Whether it's living independently or in a group setting, working in a supported environment or participating in community activities, we are here to help people realize their full potential and dreams.

As Black History Month comes to a close, our commitment does not.

This month has been a time to celebrate Black excellence and reflect on the histories and realities that continue to shape our communities. In developmental services, we recognize that Black individuals and families have faced, and still face, systemic barriers that affect access to services, quality of care, and trust in support systems.

Moving forward, our work is rooted in action. That means acknowledging the intersection of race and disability, challenging inequities, and strengthening culturally responsive, inclusive supports.

Black History Month may end, but our responsibility to listen, learn, and build spaces where Black families experience genuine belonging, equity, and opportunity continues โ€” every day of the year.
