Welcome to the Excel Society

The Excel Society is a not for profit organization that provides both support and advocacy for people with mental, physical and developmental disabilities in Edmonton and Calgary.

Some 400 staff members assist our clients to be active, contributing members of their community. Excel’s trained staff help clients by accessing and overcoming both individual and environmental barriers to community integration.

The Excel Society is partially funded through Alberta Children’s Services, Alberta Health Services, the Governments of Nunavut and the North West Territories and Persons with Developmental Disabilities. We own and operate 30 residences, a 56 suite Enhanced Designated Assisted Living site and several training centres. Tour our site to learn more about the Excel Society.
