Why become a member of the Individualized Funding Coalition for Ontario?

 Membership in the ‘Coalition’ will:

• Strengthen your commitment for supporting people with disabilities to direct their own lives (with help from family, loved ones and/or friends when requested or needed).
• Send a strong, credible message that there are many people in Ontario who share a vision for supported-decision making (a legal way to support people’s decisions.)
• Offer you a voice at meetings and/or by email giving you opportunities to share, discuss and have a say in different directions.
• Provide you the opportunity to be part of collective efforts to move an effective individualized funding framework forward in Ontario as a support to an “everyday, ordinary life full of purpose.”
• Keep you abreast of gatherings, latest work, government direction and possible actions to participate in.
• Provide financial support for the ongoing work of the ‘Coalition’.
• Affirm the ‘Coalition’s’ efforts along the journey.
