The special needs support system keeps evolving and changing in response to government funding and rules. We offer advice regarding the family’s overall situation and the work on all details. Usually, housing is the biggest issue. We are also there to support families through the maze of regulation and paperwork necessary to access other services. We work with you to get the benefits your family is entitled to. For those looking to base their long-term solutions in the private sector, we inform on issues like caretakers, appropriate supports and safety factors, and care options. Many of the special needs individuals we work for are interested in employment and all wish for a purposeful life.
