In September 2024, Community Living Ontario, along with our partners, launched the #WaitingToBelong campaign.
- Waiting To Belong is a new education and advocacy campaign to ultimately encourage the Ontario government to eliminate the Developmental Services waitlist by effectively funding the sector.
- Currently there are over 50,000 people on this waitlist, waiting for essential supports.
To bring forward the lived experiences driving this advocacy campaign, we are calling on people with intellectual disabilities and their families to share their stories.
- If you or your loved ones are currently waiting for support services in Ontario, we would love to hear from you.
- Please share below on how “WaitingToBelong” impacts your life and the life of your family and community.
- For instance, are you frustrated? Worried? Facing challenges in moving forward with employment, participation in community, or to achieve your goals?
