Governance & Accountability
LiveAble Homes is a purpose-driven company. We exist to create long-term value for people, communities, and the environment — not just short-term profit. As part of our commitment to becoming a Certified B Corporation, we have formally adopted a governance structure that ensures we consider the impact of our decisions on:
• Our clients and homeowners
• Our employees and contractors
• Our communities
• The environment
• The long-term public benefit
This means we are legally obligated to balance financial performance with social and environmental responsibility.
What This Means in Practice
We evaluate business decisions not only by their financial return, but also by their impact on:
Housing Accessibility & Dignity
We prioritize solutions that allow people to remain safely, comfortably, and beautifully in their homes over time.
Ethical Business Practices
We operate with transparency, fairness, and accountability in how we work with partners, vendors, and clients.
Community & Workforce Impact
We seek to support local economies, workforce development, and inclusive housing outcomes.
Environmental Responsibility
We prioritize long-life, low-waste, and sustainable design strategies wherever possible.

These efforts help create skilled career pathways while raising the standard of accessibility across our region.
