We All Belong Here
Our communities grow when everyone has opportunities to make a meaningful contribution.
Communitas is launching a new counselling program
People with developmental disabilities need mental health support designed for their needs.
Your generosity helps bring this specialized care closer to home.
Kindness Connects
At Communitas, we get to connect with some of the most amazing people in the world. The people we serve teach us every day that goodness exists in abundance, and all it takes is one small act of kindness to prove it. This is something we’ll explore in 2026 with our new annual theme: Kindness Connects. We know you’ll be inspired!
Who We Are
We are a faith-based, registered charity that supports people of all abilities in a variety of person-centered ways. These supports include home living, community support, employment, respite, and social enterprises in Metro Vancouver, the Fraser Valley, and Vancouver Island. All these services have common goals: instilling a sense of belonging, facilitating personal growth, and enabling people to make positive contributions to their community.
The people we serve may live with developmental disabilities, may have an acquired brain injury, or live with mental health challenges. No matter what their story is, they all deserve a place of belonging. From this connected and supported place, they can direct their own growth and make the contributions they aspire to make.
Everyone deserves a place to belong.

Community Responds With Kindness
On a hot, sunny Saturday in June, staff, trainees, and volunteers from Communitas and Unitex held a Sidewalk Sale and Car Wash at Communitas. The event was an opportunity to raise awareness and funds for Communitas’ services and social enterprises. We expected to wash cars and sell clothing. What was unexpected was the kindness with which customers reacted as they learned more about what Communitas is all about. Check this out!
