Home Share Providers

Nanaimo Association for Community Living (NACL) is a non-profit society that has supported adults with developmental disabilities in the Nanaimo and surrounding area since 1986. Home Share describes a living arrangement whereby an individual, couple, and/or family shares their home with an adult with a developmental disability and supports them in their daily lives. Home Share usually involves supporting one adult with a developmental disability but providers can support two (at maximum) in unique situations. NACL is currently looking for caring, skilled, inclusive people to provide full time, respite, and emergency respite home sharing to adults with disabilities who may have complex behavioural/personal care needs. As the people we support are diverse in lifestyle, age, and desires for living arrangements, we are looking for: Single men and women, couples and families.
