Welcome to KEYS to INclusion!

KEYS is a registered charitable organization committed to helping our adult family members and friends with intellectual disabilities reach their full potential.

We believe that neighbourhood opportunities for work, volunteer, and social experiences are the KEYS to creating strong vibrant communities for all. Watch and listen as members of KEYS describe their experience learning and living in the community.
