“What
is your Adult Child doing after they graduate from High
School?”
“Nothing?!
You don’t know?!”
Many of us know there
aren’t many high quality programs for young adults with
special needs once they graduate from High School.
There are very few, if any, quality Day Programs available
in Durham for adults with special needs.
Don’t
worry
Tania’s Place is here to help
We
have helped well over 60 families in our first year of
operation. Our second year promises to increase those we service
by almost double. Our reputation speaks for it's
self.
-
We
offer programs that are not only creative but of the highest
quality.
-
We
have been blessed with the most caring and highly qualified
staff and volunteers.
-
Both
Transit service providers are on board and do everything
they can to meet our clients needs.
-
Community
Groups like the Ajax Optimist Club have embraced our concept
and goals and are committed to assisting our families with
specific funding needs.
-
Local
merchants have opened their doors and we have been able to
place several of our clients in work placements. Some
have turned into Part time jobs!
-
Both
Boards of Education have recognized us as a viable service
provider and an option for parents.
-
We
have become one of the top training locations for both the
Durham Board of Educations Personal Service Worker and
Durham Colleges Human Services programs and local High
Schools for their 2 credit Coop Programs.
-
Of
course we have the best parents in the world. They are
always willing to assist in the continued success of Tania's
Place.
So
what does this all mean? WE DID IT, IT'S WORKING and WE ARE GROWING. We will be looking at opening our second
location in the Oshawa area sometime in the Spring of 2007. Please take the time to fill out our
needs assessment survey. Click on the green button to your
