Residential Group Homes
At Fitzmaurice Community Services (FCS), we are dedicated to providing exceptional Community Living Arrangements (CLAs) that serve as a beacon of hope and support for individuals with intellectual disabilities. Our CLAs are thoughtfully designed shared residences that not only prioritize safety and comfort but also actively promote the development of daily living skills and community engagement. With the capacity to accommodate between one to four residents, our homes foster a nurturing and inclusive environment where individuals can thrive.
Our compassionate and experienced staff are available to residents 24 hours a day, ensuring that each resident receives personalized attention and support tailored to their unique needs. This includes assistance with everyday tasks, emotional well-being, skill development, medication administration, and even behavioral or medical support when necessary. The cornerstone of our approach is the belief in person-centered planning, which empowers residents to take an active role in their own lives. By collaborating closely with individuals, their families, and support teams, our Program Specialists create Individual Support Plans (ISPs) that reflect personal preference and aspirations, making meaningful participation in the community a reality.

Lifesharing through Family Living
Fitzmaurice Community Services believes that relationships are vital to a fulfilling life. Our Lifesharing program invites compassionate households to open their homes and hearts to adults with intellectual disabilities, creating an environment where everyone involved can thrive. By becoming a Lifesharing household, you have the unique opportunity to foster meaningful connections that not only enrich the lives of individuals with disabilities but also your own.
Lifesharing offers a continuous, family-oriented style of care that has been met with high satisfaction rates. As a Lifesharing provider, you will receive financial support in the form of a daily stipend, allowing you to focus on what truly matters: building relationships and sharing life experiences. Each match is carefully considered, ensuring that both individuals and families benefit from the shared trust, friendship, and joy that comes from living together.
We understand that the thought of becoming a Lifesharing family can be both exciting and overwhelming. That’s why FCS is dedicated to supporting you every step of the way. Our team will work closely with your household to ensure that the application and licensing process is as smooth and minimally disruptive as possible. We take great care in creating successful family matches, ensuring that each partnership is based on mutual respect and understanding.
Join us in making a positive impact in the lives of those with intellectual disabilities by becoming a Lifesharing provider. Let’s create lasting connections that bring joy and fulfillment to all involved. Reach out to us today to learn more about how you can get started on this rewarding journey!
