Every Person Deserves a Next Level Life

At Next Level Community Living, we believe every person — regardless of ability, background, or circumstance — deserves more than basic care. They deserve community, dignity, opportunity, and the chance to thrive on their own terms.

Founded by Tomika M. Bedard, who has spent her career serving vulnerable populations, Next Level Community Living was born from a deep calling to create wraparound support systems that truly make a difference.

About Our Founder

Tomika M. Bedard

Tomika M. Bedard is an entrepreneur, advocate, and servant leader with a deep passion for serving vulnerable populations. With years of experience across home care, occupational health, and community services, she founded Next Level Community Living to fill a critical gap in community support services.

Her vision is powerful and expansive: every person — regardless of ability, background, or circumstance — deserves access to a community that uplifts them, services that honor their dignity, and opportunities that allow them to live at their next level.

I started Next Level Community Living because I believe everyone deserves to be seen, supported, and celebrated — no matter their abilities. This is more than a nonprofit. It's a movement. — Tomika M. Bedard, Founder
