- We are happy to report the Ministry of Community and Social
Services in their new Bill 77 legislation, provides the opportunity
for families to receive Direct Funding. We see this as a very
positive expansion of SSAH. However, we want to emphasize the
importance of SSAH which continues to be an essential program for
Ontario families.
- Despite the success of SSAH and these new opportunities of Direct
Funding without additional funds neither will meet the current
needs.
We encourage you to contact your
Local MPP to share your SSAH story and the need for additional funding
for the program. SSAH is a very viable and effective use of funding for families to enable
their family member to live a full, inclusive and involved life in their
community.
To contact your Region office
for SSAH, Look for the list of Regional Offices on our links page to the
provincial government
or our most recent newsletter, Special edition, June 2009 .
