About Community Living Month:

Throughout the month of May Community Living Associations across the province celebrate Community Living month. This month is a time for us to celebrate the rights choices and inclusion for people with an intellectual disability and to celebrate the communities where they live, learn work and play. It is a time to reflect on how far we have come, and to reaffirm our commitment to reaching full inclusion for all citizens. A society where everyone belongs. A society where everyone is valued.
