Please join us for a presentation about Journey to Belonging: Choice and Inclusion, the government of Ontario’s plan to reform developmental services. The plan is centred on a vision where people with developmental disabilities are supported by their communities, support networks and government to belong and live inclusive lives, where they are empowered to make choices and live as independently as possible through supports that are person-directed, equitable and sustainable.
Learn more about the plan and ask your questions in a live Q&A with Directors from the Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services (MCCSS).
