This program is for families that have received Specialized Services funding through Family Support for Children with Disabilities (FSCD). This is a consultative, parent initiated service, that provides parents with the resources, strategies, and tools to help their child learn skills and participate in daily routines. Services are overseen and coordinated by the SFS supervisor to ensure that family priorities are addressed as well as FSCD mandates are followed. Based on the child’s developmental needs, FSCD determines which 2 or more of the following therapists would provide support:
- Speech-language pathologist
- Occupational therapist
- Psychologist
- Physical therapist
Therapists have a family centered, multidisciplinary approach when providing services in the home, at the Centre and/or in the community. Parent involvement is mandatory for this service.
