Howe Sound Rehabilitation Services Society first opened its doors in 1988 in North Vancouver with the establishment of Windsong House, a residential home that had accommodations for three people with developmental disabilities. Tonnar and members of Howe Sound were successful because they strongly encouraged community integration, support and awareness. Through close contact and the building of relationships within the community Howe Sound was effective in educating people, building trust and respect for the organization, its members and clients. Their hard work and dedication paid off and for 18years the residents of Windsong House have been respected citizens of the community. Today Howe Sound provides a range of residential and day program services to over 150 adults, youth and children with acquired brain injuries, developmental, physical, and medical health care needs.

We believe service providers have an obligation to: 1. work in partnership and collaboration with other community agencies, 2. honour each other’s uniqueness and similarities, 3. participate and share in each other’s community events, celebrations and causes, 4. actively engage the public in awareness and education, 5. challenge the community to support anti-racism/anti-oppression work.
