Lifetime Networks was started by five families in 1998. These families had children with developmental disabilities and wanted an answer to the question “what will happen to my child when I pass away?”
Lifetime Networks understands the importance of friendship as being one of the cornerstones to a fulfilling life. Connecting with people and making friends can be very difficult, in fact sometimes almost impossible! Through Personal Support Networks they develop and maintain lasting friendships; true reciprocal unpaid relationships.
Lifetime Networks also offers informal networks and further supports through continuing education, employment support, community inclusion, fine arts, social cooking, evening socials and Best Buddies.
The agency strives to continue developing and providing a safe and inclusive space to everyone and anyone who is a part of the Lifetime family. Everyone is welcome, regardless of diversability, race, ethnicity, cultural background, religion, gender or sexual orientation.
