Why Choose Community Systems, Inc.?

Our results-driven approach leads to lower social costs and a stronger, healthier community.

We are distinctive for our:

dedication to individual supports planned one person at a time
tenacity in helping persons with challenges to find success
commitment to remain abreast of best practice, and our
staunch belief that no one with disabilities need live in an institution.

Why happiness?

In 1998, we asked an interview panel what additional support we could provide for their loved ones. One mother simply replied, “All I want is for Kathy to be happy.”

It is what we all seek, for ourselves and our families, and it became our corporate mission to which we remain dedicated today and into the future. Happiness grows when it is shared.
