About us

Grewal Place Community Living is a residential support provider in Nanaimo, British Columbia. We run a community living home for adults and youth with developmental disabilities, with 24-hour support in a setting that feels like home, not a facility.

We believe the people we support have the same right as anyone to a safe home, meaningful days and a place in their community. Our job is to make that possible, one person at a time.

Mission statement

To provide safe, person-centred homes where adults and youth with developmental disabilities are respected, supported to make their own choices, and included in the life of their community.

Our vision

A Nanaimo where everyone, whatever their abilities, has a home they love and people who know them well.

What we value

Dignity

We treat every person as the expert in their own life.

Choice

People decide how they spend their days, with support to make informed decisions.

Belonging

We build connections with family, friends, neighbours and local groups.

Safety

Trained staff, clear routines and careful health support, without losing warmth.

Honesty

We keep families and referral workers informed, and we own our mistakes.

Growth

We celebrate every new skill, big or small.

Our home in Nanaimo

Our home is close to parks, trails, the waterfront and local services, so everyday life happens in the community: grocery runs, swimming, walks along the harbourfront, and time with family and friends.
