Disability Housing Projects here in the ACT

Getting a life

Getting a Life is a family-governed group which is committed to building a strong community for Jackson, Daniel and Ben and for the other residents. We can call this an intentional community of attachment, an inclusive community, a neighbourly community or a friendly warm and inviting community where people care about, greet and help one another.

ACT Community Living Project

The ACT Community Living Project Inc (CLP) is a not-for-profit community organisation seeking services for people with disability, particularly those with a moderate to severe intellectual disability, many of whom have physical and/or health challenges.
This group also includes people with Autism.
CLP represents over 350 families in Canberra and the surrounding region who are seeking quality life choices for a family member with an intellectual disability. CLP also represents families from interstate.
Over 94% of the group CLP represents still live at home, many with ageing parents. Families are deeply concerned about what will happen to their much loved family member when they are no longer able to be cared for in their family home.
