Community Living Winnipeg is about bringing people together to achieve the inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities in all aspects of community.

Our long history began in the 1950s when families began gathering in their homes or church basements to build services for their children in the community. Over the past six decades our organization has worked with families to ensure their sons and daughters receive excellent services that promote quality of life and equal status with other citizens.

This year we celebrate our 55th anniversary committed to building welcoming communities where everyone is included.
