Did you know that St.Amant has a world renowned research centre made possible with a partnership through the University of Manitoba? This partnership has birthed an unparalleled hub of knowledge, dedicated to enriching the lives of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The Research Centre is also fully funded by St.Amant Foundation. In fact, you can delve into the extensive St.Amant’s research library here.

At the heart of the St.Amant Research Centre lies a profound mission: to empower and inform society for the benefit of persons living with intellectual and developmental disabilities through world-class collaborative research and education. 

The Research Center aims to create relevant research, use the findings to serve the people we support, build strong community relationships and improve education and capacity building within St.Amant and beyond. 

Thanks to the generous support of the Winnipeg Foundation, The St.Amant Foundation received a community grant in which a portion was devoted to evidence-informed planning and evaluation work at the Research Centre, including the Community Transitions Evaluation Project. Together with the Foundation, we aspire to elevate the quality of life for those living with intellectual and developmental disabilities, leveraging the power of research as a catalyst for positive change.

The participants of this particular study included people that work in community homes and their perspective. At St.Amant we always work to honour the rights of the people we support and in the case, to help them to live and thrive within the community.
