Welcome to Better Community Living, Inc.
Better Community Living, Inc. (BCL) is a premier human service provider where families have a voice, and individuals choose to be a part of our living and working community. BCL serves the Greater New Bedford Area providing more than just living spaces for individuals with developmental disabilities and autism. With 30 years of experience, we provide these individuals with the support to become productive members of the community while establishing empowering friendships.

Our 26th Annual Golf Tournament will be in loving memory of Joseph “Joe” Riley, who has been an integral part of BCL for over 36 years. As a critical member of our leadership team, Joe had a profound impact on the lives of numerous individuals, families, and employees at BCL.
