Community Living Burlington is a social-profit charitable organization serving the communities across the Halton region since 1955. Our mission is to enrich the quality of life of people with a developmental disability and promote their full and meaningful inclusion in the community.

Through LifeShare, Ontario families and citizens (home providers) can offer a safe and nurturing environment for children and adults who have a developmental disability (home sharers).

LifeShare (also know as Host Family) is a residential alternative option offered to children and adults who have a developmental disability. This option enables families to share their home and provide a supportive environment to the child or adult living within the home. The children or adults living in LifeShare are able to benefit from the support of living with a host family, while developing independence and experiencing the structure of living in an alternative family model. With the help of our home providers and LifeShare team, we encourage our home sharers to live independently as possible in their communities.
