Eastern Residential Support Baord Inc. has been in existence an incorporated entity since 1998. However, the Board was created as a result of an amalgamation of three previous boards( United Church Group Home Board, Twin Cities Support Board, Avalon Community Accomodations Board) which dated back to 1980. We are funded by the Department of Health and Community Services and mandated to provide Cooperative Living Arrangements to individuals with developmental/physical disabilities, and in some cases psychiatric illness. The intent of the program is to provide these individuals with the necessary skills and independence to enable them to move on to less restrictive living arrangements
