Our Approach

There are many organizations designed to assist adults with a variety of special needs however they are lacking a multidisciplinary team approach that not only creates treatment plans but also has clinicians and therapists to follow through with those plans.  Active Lives will provide a place where therapies combined with continuing education and recreational skills can be carried out.

Active Lives believes that adulthood should be the beginning not the end of growth!

From the launch of Active Lives Canada respite program, the ultimate goal has been to provide residential respite. Since Covid 19, nearly every service provider in our sector has  reported having serious backlogs and waiting lists of families desperate for away from home respite services. While Active Lives Canada does  have interest slowly building for our in-home and community based respite program, after communicating with several different service providers it is evident that a more financially successful avenue to explore would be a residential respite home, providing overnight away from home services.

Home

Our respite program is designed to provide the best possible care for your child and allow them to thrive in our residential environment. Respite care helps family caregivers restore balance in their lives. It allows caregivers to take the time to recover from the stresses of caregiving and gives them the flexibility to take care of other important aspects of their lives. Respite care is a necessary tool to support a caregiver's success. A residential home offers a short-term change in living arrangements and social contact. Residents typically stay in the home for one week to two months. After that, they return to their own homes.
