Community Living Oakville (CLO) is a non-profit charitable organization that has held a longstanding reputation within Oakville and the Halton region for 70 years. Our agency supports people with developmental disabilities to develop skills towards independence and participate in meaningful opportunities; striving for community inclusion.
Our organization provides support to over 300 people in supported living, community participation supports and employment services as well as 300 staff and volunteers, all of whom are dedicated to ensuring that everyone can enjoy their right to lead active and productive lives.
CLO strongly believes in the importance of advocacy for those that are vulnerable or underrepresented and we empower the people we support to advocate for their rights of equality and inclusion within our local community. While our organization is ministry funded, the support received only covers basic everyday essentials – like food, shelter, utilities, transportation and staff. And like most government funded service providers; we often need to do more with less.
