Children Service Coordination for Families

Children’s Service Coordinators assist families to identify their strengths, needs and goals. They help identify appropriate services and resources to support families to make informed decisions about the options available to them. Children’s Service Coordinators assess eligibility for supports and make referrals to complementary services and help children and their families transition to day care, school and adulthood. Children between birth and school age, who are residents of Manitoba who have a permanent physical disability, are Deaf or hard of hearing, have a brain injury, or experience seizures are eligible for support through this program.

Vocational rehabilitation refers to the progressive process of planning, preparing for and attaining gainful employment. We offer these services to adults 16 and over independent of the school system, who have a permanent of chronic physical, neurological or hearing disability.

Our focus is on meeting the basic mobility needs of people who are active and living independently within the community. The Permit Program ensures that when a person has difficulty walking more than 50 meters they can park in one of the specially designated parking spots in lots across the province. The program is available to community-living Manitoba residents who require a wheelchair for at least six months.
