 Extend-A-Family Kingston (EAFK) was established in 1981 with the goal of providing individuals who have a disability with opportunities to develop friendships and integrate into their communities.

Extend-A-Family Kingston is committed to providing a range of supports and services to individuals with a disability and their families. Extend-A-Family Kingston is a not-for-profit organization governed by a volunteer Board of Directors. We provide a choice of services and supports for children with developmental disabilities, physical disabilities and Autism Spectrum Disorders, as well as a range of services and supports for adults with a developmental disability.

The programs for children include family support, respite, inclusive seasonal camps, recreational programs, and community participation supports.  At the same time, the Adult Day Program focuses on enhancing social, educational and healthy lifestyles and providing recreational opportunities for all program participants.
