 Community Living Services are:

...a range of supports provided to people with disabilities, enabling them to live as full citizens in the community:

Residential Services - places for people to live as independently as possible, with assistance provided by staff or live-in caregivers as required.

Community Inclusion Services - support for people to be engaged in their community in meaningful ways, including paid or volunteer work, continuing education, and recreation.

Shared Living - an alternative to staffed residential services.  People are matched with caregivers (families, couples or singles) who want to share their homes and their lives with someone with a disability.
