DeafBlind Ontario Foundation raises funds for DeafBlind Ontario Services for programs that support the individuals they serve. DeafBlind Ontario Services supports people who are deafblind, as well as those living with a developmental disability who are Deaf, hard of hearing or use non-traditional forms of communication. DeafBlind Ontario Services takes a holistic approach to providing an array of services that are customized to each person’s unique needs, language and method of communication, and goals to increase their independence and enrich their life.
Supported living homes provide accessible, barrier-free, affordable housing and access to support services 24/7. We support 89 individuals in supported living homes in communities across the province, operating in the regions of Simcoe, York, London, Kitchener-Waterloo, Ottawa, Sudbury, Durham and Peterborough. Our homes are designed to support the unique needs of individuals with sensory loss as well as encourage the development of life and vocational skills along with recreational opportunities. With your support, we will make the holidays festive, happy and full of good cheer for the people we serve. Thank you!
