Vancouver Island Autistic Homes Society (VIAH) was incorporated as a not-for-profit Society and registered as a charitable organization in 1986.

From 1986 to 1991, VIAH successfully sponsored five federal job developmental projects, including a successful training program for job coaches who work with people who have autism and other complex mental disabilities. In 1990, the Society opened its first residence for adults. Currently, the Society operates four residences and a family support model home, providing living situations for adults with autism and other challenging behaviours/disabilities.We also act as an information resource to parents, people with autism, schools and other agencies.

Our vision is to alleviate direct and financial barriers to individuals with neurological, physical and behavioural disabilities. Through the provisions of programs and services, equipment and supplies, and extra curricular educational, recreational and cultural activities, we can enhance the quality of life, access and opportunity.
