CLBC Client Support Team

On January 19, 2011, the Province unveiled a comprehensive plan to address issues and concerns around Community Living BC (CLBC) and the government-wide system of supports for British Columbians with developmental disabilities.

One element of this plan is to establish a permanent appeal mechanism based on the experience of the current Client Support Team.

The Client Support Team was created in October 2011 in response to concerns raised by families and advocates about CLBC services.

Until the permanent appeal mechanism is in place, the Client Support Team will continue to work with individuals with developmental disabilities and their families who have expressed dissatisfaction about current services or feel these services no longer address their needs.

Government recognizes that effective collaboration across ministries – and between government and CLBC – is paramount to achieve quick resolution for families. If you would like to have a representative of the Client Support Team contact you, e‐mail info@communitylivingbc.ca or call toll-free 1-877-660-2522.
