The Ministry of Community and Social Services works to ensure that
effective and accountable social and community services are directed
to those most in need, while reinvesting in more prevention and
early intervention services.
The Ministry provides funding for a range of services and supports
for children and adults with developmental disabilities. Services
are delivered largely through community-based agencies that provide
supports to help adults live independently, to help families care
for adults and children at home, and to help people contribute to
and participate in their communities.
