Are you a family member to someone with a developmental disability?
We are looking for:
- parents, grandparents, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins, and caregivers – anyone who identifies as a family member
- community members who are not currently, but could be receiving CLGW supports in the next 0-5 years
- people receiving supports from CLGW, who would not have family involved in their support
Who are willing to give a little time 3x a year to provide feedback, input and ideas to improve engagement and the support CLGW provides.
Thank you so much for your interest. Our application window is now closed.
Applicants will hear back from CLGW by March 13, 2023.
What will you do as part of the Family Engagement Committee?
- Provide input into family based CLGW services (i.e., parent networking meeting topics, person-centred
training and other workshops, innovative housing initiatives, and strategic planning feedback). - Create opportunities for families to participate more over time (i.e., family-based workshops,
networking meetings). - Mentor other families by sharing information and networking on an ongoing basis.
- Foster two-way communication between and amongst families and share ideas to improve services.
- Be an ambassador, acknowledging and sharing information and initiatives impacting CLGW family members.
