Project Management led by Inclusion NB

Inclusion NB is a provincial, non-profit organization that works to support children and adults with an intellectual or developmental disability and their families. Our movement leads in creation of opportunities for everyone to live full and valued lives in all aspects of society.

Known for decades as the New Brunswick Association for Community Living, community living was a radical idea for the time. Back then, many thought people with intellectual or developmental disabilities belonged in a facility, needed special treatment, and should be kept away from their communities. Each day we work to change that.

In 2022, we changed our name to one that embodies our ultimate mission and vision – that all people should be able to belong, contribute, and participate in everyday activities, in the community in which they choose to live.
