Community Living Main Content Community Living has been supporting individuals with developmental disabilities since 1969. During the past 45 years we have seen the quality of life for people with developmental disabilities increase dramatically. In 1969 people with developmental disabilities were mostly supported in Washington States seven institutions with as many as 40 people per residence hall with little recognition being given to them as human beings having rights abilities and individual selfworth. The combined total population of the seven state institutions was over 8000 people.
