Were You Denied Passport Funding?

You're invited to an

Information-Action Evening on the Passport Program

When: September 12, 2007, 7 pm to 9 pm

Where: 22 Leeming Street, Hamilton

Why?

Hamilton Area: 174 applied for Passport. 6 people with developmental disabilities funded.
Toronto Area: over 400 applicants 33 people funded.
London Area: 262 applicants 11 people funded.
   (approximate numbers)

The story is the same throughout the province. In May 2007 the Minister of Community and Social Services announced a $200M budget for Developmental Services. Where is the money?

Throughout the province 100's of people with developmental disabilities have been left with no support and will languish at home. How are families, the largest care-giver group in Ontario supposed to survive with no meaningful support to help them do their job?

Come to the Information-Action Evening and join with voices across Ontario to protest this second-rate treatment of people with disabilities and their families.
