May is just around the corner, and that means it’s almost time for Community Living Month! This is a time for Community Living Ontario and our 100+ local associations to come together to celebrate our movement and promote the inclusion of people who have an intellectual disability and their families.
As part of our preparations for this year’s celebration, Community Living Ontario is excited to launch a brand new resource hub for Community Living Month!
