It is a big move for Vicky Levack. The spokesperson and human rights advocate is no longer living in a nursing home. She is in a new apartment because of the Shared Services Project. That's where persons with physical disabilities can live independently in the community with 24-hour support. It's through Independent Living Nova Scotia (ILNS) and is a project four years in the making. Eventually, the group is hoping to find homes for 200 Nova Scotians with disabilities. Carrie Ernst is the Executive Director of ILNS. She says they've worked with the Nova Scotia government to develop policies and best practices. She explains how Vicky and the others involved in the pilot will remain in community permanently so that they can live a full, independent life with support from attendants.
