Programs and Services
Disability Services
We’ve been serving people in Edmonton living with disabilities since 1979.
Our services support a wide range of diagnoses, including but not limited to:
- developmental disabilities
- physical limitations
- behavioural and psychological challenges
- medical fragility
The difference Disability Services makes
Our goal is to empower individuals to achieve their full potential with the support of their community. We create opportunities for each individual to enhance her/his quality of life through goal setting and personal achievement.
Who we serve
We were first established to provide support to women having a child living with disabilities.
Today, our services are expanded to include all adults and children with disabilities, and their families. From infants to seniors, we support everyone we can to ensure all those who come into our care are given every opportunity to live their best life.
