Creative Living Providing independent, affordable, wheelchair accessible housing to adults with physical disabilities

Creative Living was founded in 1974 as a 501(c)(3) organization to solve the housing dilemma for adults with physical disabilities who desire to live independently but still require some day-to-day assistance. Our residents are quadriplegics and paraplegics whose spinal cord or brain injuries are the result of traumatic accidents or whose congenital diagnoses have required full-time or nearly full

-time use of a wheelchair for mobility. At the heart of the Creative Living mission is our unique Resident Assistance Program that delivers peace-of-mind and on-call, non-medical assistance 24 hours per day, seven days per week, 365 days per year – things like removing a jacket, grabbing an item off of a shelf, transferring from wheelchair to bed or vice versa, carrying groceries, taking out the trash or assisting with a full-on emergency, among many other needs. This invaluable service bridges the gap between the time a personal care attendant might spend with residents and the remaining hours of the day. To express it simply, Creative Living is the difference between living independently or living in an expensive, skilled nursing facility. For our residents, independence and affordability prevails.

Tonight’s gathering with Care and Share Time Bank was a reminder of what community can look like when people come together with openness, curiosity, and a willingness to connect.

Residents and guests packed the room, shared a great potluck meal, and spent the evening exchanging ideas about how each person has something meaningful to offer. The conversation was full of encouragement, creativity, and excitement about building stronger connections through shared talents and experiences.

What stood out most was the enthusiasm in the room. People weren’t just listening, they were engaged, asking questions, sharing their own experiences, and imagining new ways to support one another.

We’re grateful to Care and Share Time Bank for spending the evening with us and helping spark conversations about reciprocity, belonging, and the power of neighbors helping neighbors. We’re excited to see where these connections lead next.
