About Us - History
 
Community Living-Stormont County is a charitable non-profit corporation governed by a Board of eleven Directors, and the immediate Past President, who are elected at our Annual General Meeting in June of each year.

Like most Associations For Community Living, C.L.S.C. was founded by parents who had no services for their sons and daughters.

The agency had its inaugural meeting on November 12, 1958.

On May 1, 1959 the parents started a school with classes being offered at the Trinity Church Hall. In August of 1961 the classes were moved to the City Recreational Centre.

By May 1962 a Building Committee began work to raise money to open a school. The Kinsmen supported the project and raised $75,000. In April 1964 the Kinsmen School was opened.

The first Ministry funding was received in 1965. The Ministry of Community and Social Services funded 80 % of the cost of operating the Kinsmen School. Eventually, the school came under the Separate School Board’s jurisdiction.

That same year, the first day program was opened. It was known as ARC Industries.

Over the years, the agency has evolved and expanded services. Today, the C.L.S.C. employs 55 Full Time and 45 Part Time and Causal staff. The operating budget is approximately 3.5 million dollars.
