community housing and inclusion program
The heart and soul of our work has always focused on ensuring people with disabilities can live and thrive in their own community.
Our Community Housing & Inclusion Program has been supporting individuality, choice, enrichment, independence and diversity in affordable, accessible, safe and secure community housing for more than 40 years. All of our homes have been purpose-built or renovated to accommodate wheelchair access, and are located in residential neighbourhoods throughout the North Shore.
Our program offerings include the Supported Living Program and the Independent Living Program.

The NSDRC was started by a group of families in 1976. In the years since, we have worked for a "Community for All" by developing and providing community housing, infant development programs, youth groups, community-based services, and information and advocacy.
We are grateful for the opportunity to work, live and play on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples, including the territories of xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
