Really love this resource! With parents aging and people with Down syndrome living longer than ever, siblings are being looked to more and more to become caregivers - a huge role to fill. #CaregiverSupport

“I have lived with discrimination for part of my life. When I was young, and growing up, I was bullied because of my disability. But now I can use that voice, from the child that I was, to be heard, louder and louder. I can shout it on the top of a building or off a mountain, bigger than the UN so that persons with disabilities are included at the table." - Nicholas Herd speaking at the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities at the UN Headquarters in New York Very proud to see our friend Nicholas Herd representing our community on the international stage! We are lucky to work alongside such a passionate leader. #SelfAdvocacy news.un.org/en/story/2023/06… @UN @LArcheCanada

So many of Ontario’s most vulnerable are on a never-ending waitlist for support. Can we keep asking them to be patient? It’s time for us all to share in their struggle. Share this post to show that they are not alone. #DevelopmentalServicesMatter

Have you been hearing about minimum wage going up? While that won't affect @EAFWR Direct Support People this year, there are some other employment standards that do. Find out how this affects families we serve at our information night! eafwr.on.ca/info-night-bill-…
