Total Living Concept (TLC) became a Washington Not-for-Profit organization on July 26, 1982. In the beginning, TLC only operated group homes, which provided congregated living options for people with developmental disabilities.

Through the process of constant self-evaluation and listening to the people being supported, TLC gradually moved away from congregated housing options to providing individualized support enabling each person to live in their own home. The state refers to this as Supported Living.

Many people choose to reduce their living expenses by sharing their homes with housemates who do not receive services from TLC, but rather are members of our general community. TLC is very proud to support people to live where they want, with whom they want, for as long as they want, according to their own personal lifestyle choices.

The individuals that request our services live throughout the south King County area.
