“Having a home of your own gives you a piece of independence. You have your own home.” — Travis McNally (2004)

Welcome to the Grande Prairie Residential Society (GPRS). Since 1986, we’ve been dedicated to creating safe, affordable, and fully accessible homes for people with physical disabilities right here in Grande Prairie, Alberta. Our barrier-free housing — from the original Crystal Ridge duplexes to Margaret Edgson Manor — empowers independence while offering the support residents need to thrive. After the 2025 fire at Margaret Edgson Manor, we’re actively rebuilding to restore and expand these vital homes. Whether you’re seeking accessible housing, interested in volunteering, or looking to support our efforts, we’re here to help.
