Adult family-type resource ID-ASD-PD | CISSS du Bas-Saint-Laurent

An adult family-type resource (FTR) in the category of foster home is a living environment where one or two people welcome, into their primary residence, up to a maximum of nine adults or seniors with an intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder or a physical disability.
