We believe that the most important thing in life is relationships.
Everything else is how we give substance, value, and meaning to those relationships.
Cadmus is an association of lifesharing families in and around Great Barrington, Massachusetts. The families are extended to include adults with mental and/or physical handicaps. Each family is unique in its lifestyle. The first two Cadmus households, Buena Vista & Orchard, were founded in 1984. Cadmus has since grown to a size of 65 people in eight households. Lifesharing is a way of living together informed by the principle of interdependence. People with abilities, disabilities and needs assume roles in the community that correspond to their strengths and weaknesses.
The Cadmus Lifesharing Association is creating a community in which it is no handicap to be handicapped.
