The Developmental Disabilities Association is a community living agency that provides over 50 community-based programs to children and adults with developmental disabilities and their families. We create extended networks of support, invest in individual needs, and strive for an inclusive and safe community. Over 1,600 individuals and families in the Vancouver and Richmond area are supported every year.
In Vancouver, we are currently seeking home share providers to expand our Individual Care Network. We have individuals who seek to have their own private bedroom within a shared family home, basement suite or a shared apartment with a roommate.
Home share providers help adults with developmental disabilities learn new ways to be successful with their financial management, health and nutrition, relationship building, and community activities.
