KOOTENAY SOCIETY FOR COMMUNITY LIVING

Kootenay Society for Community Living is a non-profit organization that supports and promotes the inclusion of all residents in and around the West Kootenay with developmental disabilities into the fabric of community life... The Kootenay Society for Community Living (KSCL) was started in the 1950s by a small group of parents in Castlegar who had a strong desire to develop community resources for their children with special needs. They opened the Silver Birch School and, as a result, KSCL was formed and registered as a non-profit organization under the Societies Act of British Columbia... Our services focus on teaching individuals the skills and knowledge they need to live as independently as possible in the community.
