About us

What sets Ascending Hope & Living apart.

To strengthen our community by innovatively solving challenges in residential care — allowing disabled adults to realise their full potential.

Ascending Hope & Living was founded on a simple belief: everyone deserves a safe and supportive environment in which to grow. We build that environment with compassionate and responsible staff, who consistently teach and encourage confidence and independence in our residents.

Our work is dedicated to empowering adults toward independence through comprehensive residential health services. Each of our licensed homes is a unique community — residents are placed on an individual basis based on age, gender and unique needs.

We incorporate a multi-disciplinary model to help our residents manage and resolve distressing thoughts and feelings, and to improve safety, independence and communication skills. Our direct care workers are supported by a multi-disciplinary team including behavioural health professionals, registered nurses, licensed counsellors and dietitians.
