Passport Funding

Passport funding, through the Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services, gives adults with a developmental disability an opportunity to take part in their community. Those who receive Passport funding have the opportunity to pursue what they enjoy, their personal goals, and what they want to achieve, as well as respite. People may choose to develop work skills, volunteering, and being involved further in their community, building skills to help in their everyday life. Sound like a lot?
