Founded during the height of the disability rights movement in 1983, Langley empowers adults with developmental disabilities to live full, rich lives. When individuals join its community, they receive a lifelong commitment of support. Each individual collaborates with program staff to outline their care needs and personal goals. Then, using a person-centered approach, staff help them foster their independence, providing thousands of hours of one-on-one drop-in support at their homes every year. Langley also operates in six group homes, where support professionals provide care after work during the week, across weekends, and overnight if intensive services are needed. As residents receive mentorship in grocery shopping, cooking, managing finances, and maintaining social relationships, their confidence and self-sufficiency grow. For some 44 individuals, Langley is home, where they can build family simply by being themselves.
