Passport Initiative
Offered by Family Service Toronto

Passport to Community Living is a Provincial Government initiative that provides opportunities for individuals who have a developmental disability and have left school to find more ways to participate in their communities. Passport participants receive funding for activities that encourage their personal development and help them achieve their potential.

Individuals and families have the option to either receive Passport funding directly to make their own arrangements to purchase supports and services, or to choose to access services through community-based agencies.

As of June 21, 2010 two plain language guides for the Passport program, are now available on the MCSS website. One of the guides is for families and caregivers and one is for individuals with a developmental disability.

The links for these guides in French and English are:
