The ErinoakKids Independent Living Program
As a CTC, we must discharge client children when they reach the age of 19. And the question is, what’s next for them? How can they cope with adult independence after a lifetime in the care of their parents and the professionals at ErinoakKids? The Independent Living Program is the answer.
The two-week program – delivered in a safe, secure, supportive and accessible learning environment at Sheridan College in Oakville – takes place each summer thanks to a partnership between ErinoakKids and the Hamilton and District Participaction House, an adult service agency that provides housing and attendant services to adults with disabilities.
