    DSTO Fifth Annual Information Fair Wrap-Up Report
    Developmental Services Toronto (dsto) held its fifth annual Information Fair on May 6, 2010. This year the Fair was held at the Yorkland Hotel in the Highway 404 – Sheppard area. As in previous years, the intent of the Fair was to showcase the Toronto developmental services partnership and to promote “system building” by encouraging agencies to see themselves as part of a developmental services system and by providing staff with the opportunity to better get to know that system.
