The PEI Association for Community Living is a family-based association assisting people with intellectual disabilities and their families to lead the way in advancing inclusion in their own lives and in their communities.

Vision

A Prince Edward Island in which people with intellectual disabilities and their families belong and participate fully in all aspects of community life.

Mission

The Prince Edward Island Association for Community Living (PEIACL) is a family-based association empowering people with intellectual disabilities and their families to lead the way in advancing inclusion in their own lives and in their communities. We do this by sharing information, fostering leadership for inclusion, facilitating networking, connecting people and opportunities and promoting rights and values in keeping with the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD).

We are currently working in two priority areas:  

Supporting Families

We provide support and advocacy services, in various environments, such as schools and family homes which are guided by the needs of each individual and family.

Social Policy Reform

PEI ACL for the last 55+ years has promoted the rights and values in keeping with the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD).
