About us

We’re InLife, a not-for-profit that works with people with frequent and complex support needs to tailor life-changing assistance programs.

We build teams around every client, depending on their needs and preferences. We partner with people with any type of disability. Our clients may have physical disability, acquired brain injury, neurological conditions, intellectual disability or autism. Most live independently in the community, including in Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA). And we’re tickled pink that many of our clients rely solely on InLife for their essential support needs. Nobody else. Just us. We build our teams from scratch, hiring new members as needed. This is why our Assistants are so important.
