The Direct Funding Program enables adults with a physical disability to become employers of their own attendants. Attendants assist with routine activities of living, such as dressing, transferring and toileting.
 
The program is currently at capacity, but we are still accepting applications. Interviews will be done from time to time as space becomes available in the program.
 
Funded by: Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care
 
Administered by: Centre for Independent Living in Toronto (CILT), Inc.
 
In partnership with: the Ontario Network of Independent Living Centres (ONILC).

 

 

As alternatives to Direct Funding, both the Attendant Outreach Service and the Supportive Housing Units programs deliver attendant services to adults with physical disabilities. For more information on these, please visit our Attendent Services page.
