2010/2011 District Project CANADIAN PARAPLEGIC ASSOCIATION PROJECT No. 2416
This year’s District Project is in support of the Canadian Paraplegic Association (CPA) Ontario. The Canadian Paraplegic Association Ontario is divided into regions to better serve local communities. Georgian South District is covered, in its entirety, by the Barrie Regional office. Their mission: To assist persons with spinal cord injuries (SCI) and other physical disabilities to achieve independence, self-reliance and full community participation. Regional Services: The Regional Service Coordinators (RSC) assists clients with spinal cord injuries or other physical disabilities in the transition from acute care through rehabilitation and back into the community. This program delivers customized, client-focused solutions for people with unique needs. The RSC Ontario focuses on: the adjustment to disability, caregiver support, housing, employment, funding, education, independent living, equipment, health and wellness. The RSC works closely with its community partners throughout the continuum of community supports. They focus on client centered goals and solutions, while navigating system barriers and road blocks that prevent equitable access to health care services, long-term health and quality of life. CPA Ontario is a community expert on SCI, providing practical help, advocacy and service to people with spinal cord injuries and other disabilities as they integrate into their communities. Services are available through telephone, email and in person from their offices, in the clients’ homes or at mutually convenient locations. Flexibility is the key. Recognizing that every person and situation is unique, they encourage and support individuals to finding ways to live independently. For more information please see http://www.cpaont.org/service
