Who are "You've Gotta Have Friends"?

This group is working to ensure Langley citizens, including those living with a disabilitiy, have people in their lives with whom they share friendship and a sense of belonging.  You've Gotta have Friends is sponsored by The Langley Association for Community Living (LACL), which has provided services to individuals with developmental disabilities and families since 1959.  LACL believes there remains a critical need to build community connections and authentic friendship opportunities for people who are isolated.

You've Gotta Have Friends brings together people who have found community for people with disabilities and others who want to share their experiences.  This group is designing activities to help create a welcoming community where everyone embraces a sense of beloinging, cares for each other, connects through friendship and has fun.  You've Gotta have Friends want to break down barriers that keep people from experiencing a rich and rewarding life in the community.
