Etobicoke Speaker Series

February 17, 2010
The Etobicoke Speaker Event for February on ODSP Employment supports went very well: great attendance and the speaker, Sayonara Mairena, community legal worker for South Etobicoke Legal Services did an excellent job! It's always good to hear what people with disabilities are entitled to receive in regards to support.

Future topics will include the Toronto Mental Health and Addictions Supportive Housing Network (March 16), Disability Tax Credit (April 20) and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (May 18). Check our website for more details.

Looking forward to your attendance at these events!

New Year, New Group!

Hello everyone,

It's my pleasure to announce that the fameKids Scarborough group has now started! We have a wonderful group of 8 children who will spend the next 8 weeks learning about mental illness, expressing their feelings, and developing healthy coping skills. Each group is different, but one thing is always the same - kids are amazing. It never ceases to amaze me how resilient kids can be... I'm looking forward to seeing this group learn and grow together...
