Do you want to know about the programs and services offered for kids, youth and young adults with disabilities and developmental needs in Simcoe County?  

Join CTN for our Inclusive Information Fair at the Peggy Hill Team Community Centre. Drop-in from 2 to 5 p.m. on Saturday, June 8th to see over 45 public and private vendors and community organizations who specialize in programs, services and equipment for kids and youth with disabilities and developmental needs.

This event is free to the public and no registration is required. It is a one-stop information hub for support and resources including funding, private therapy services, transition to school and adult services, recreation programs, respite and community support for families.

CTN supports kids, youth and families by focusing on CanChild's framework of the F-words for Child Development. Every child with varying abilities has the right to have fun, enjoy friends, function as they are, access fitness, plan for their future and join in family activities. At this event you’ll be able to access information, resources and services that represent all six of the F-Words.
