Long Term Assistance: Residential Home
The goal is to provide facilities where individuals with disabilities who can no longer live with their families can live in a Christian environment that is similar to that of their parental home. The aim is to have a place that will be close enough for regular family visits and attendance at a church that nurtures the individuals with disabilities in the faith of the parental home and church.
Day Program
“The Farm” is a youth and adult Christian centre where persons with disabilities can enjoy meaningful day programs which will utilize their abilities and provide inclusive opportunities to grow and develop as individuals. The Farm was opened in 2016 in a rural area near Brantford and Hamilton.
- Farm building features large gathering room, a kitchen, and other areas for activities and socializing
- A workshop offers space for hands-on learning (woodworking/furniture building or refurnishing/engine or mechanical repairs/ train and model car designing.)
- Plenty of outdoor space for gardening, hiking, biking and other outdoor activities.
