Community Disability Services-
Community disability service organizations deliver quality supports to facilitate the citizenship of individuals with developmental disabilities.
Funded by the Persons with Developmental Disabilities (PDD) program, community-based organizations provide adults with developmental disabilities with home living, employment, community access, and specialized supports in their local communities. PDD also funds government-run operations and provides funding to families to manage their supports through Family Managed Services (FMS). Some families choose to contract with community disability service organizations to provide necessary professional supports to their family member.
Currently 90% of the services accessed by individuals with developmental disabilities through the PDD program and Family Support for Individuals with Disabilities (FSCD) program, are provided by contracted community-based service providers or by staff hired directly by families through Family Managed Services (FMS).

Edmonton Vocational program Expansion- Reading Room/ Library Need a break from the noise? Grab a book and go back in time or perhaps visit a farm. Encyclopedias are available for those who prefer facts. Play some games or finish a puzzle with a co-worker or support. Put on some headphones and just simply listen to music and relax. This quiet place is the perfect little escape!

Edmonton Vocational program Expansion - Media Room Whether learning computer basics, creating/updating a resume or watching videos about professionalism within the community, the media room is the place to be! This room has quickly become a key component of the Job Search program. This program provides support for clients seeking competitive, independent job placements within their community and the consistent space for such support is greatly appreciated by all.

Anyone else not yet ready for winter? The gentlemen and their staff at Mallard Park are choosing to ignore the snow and reminisce about the warmer weather and the beautiful garden they nurtured. From hauling wood chips for bedding to painting pots and recycled milk jugs to use as pots, with the help of their Rehoboth staff, these gentlemen really found their green thumbs! Scott, Lyle and David, your garden is beautiful! Your creativity and positivity through the pandemic is inspiring and now has us all longing for spring already!

Like many of us, Alan could not wait to get back to some of his regular routines throughout the pandemic, the most important one being his volunteer placement at Bethel Windows & Doors. Unplugging and cleaning machinery, sweeping and cleaning up the shop areas as well ensuring general safety first, Alan was unable to contain his excitement when he returned in early September. Making coffee for his coworkers and starting his shift out with laughter was the welcome back he had been waiting for!
