    • Supported Living

    inclusion powell river supports individuals with disabilities to live as independently as possible. There are a variety of options including group homes, supported living, and shared homes with single adults or families.

    If you were born with a physical, mental, or intellectual disability 70 years ago, you were often sent away to live in an institution.

    Thankfully, a group of forward-thinking parents in Powell River got together to prove that individuals with disabilities can lead full lives in the community with the proper support.

    Over time, changes to legislation, hearts, and minds created opportunities for individuals with disabilities to thrive right here in Powell River / qathet.
    Group Home Support

    inclusion powell river operates 13 licensed and fully staffed group homes in Powell River and qathet. They are nicely furnished to provide a comfortable and safe environment that feels like home.

    Each group home accommodates up to four individuals who share a living space.

    Our employees are professionally trained to provide support with daily living tasks such as:

    • Personal grooming and healthcare
    • Cooking healthy meals Communicating with friends, family, and staff
    • Transportation to and from recreation activities
    • Help finding and keeping employment

    We prioritize your safety, comfort, and overall well-being. Therefore, we work with you to find a home where your housemates will fit your needs and lifestyle.

    • Banking and paying bills
    • House cleaning
    • Transportation to and from exercise and recreation classes

    This program runs seven days a week. We offer flexible hours to meet your schedule and needs.
