A (Not So) Complete History Of Community Living Ontario

Merely surviving seventy years as an association of likeminded people is an accomplishment and one that we should collectively celebrate. But, of course, if all we have to say about the history of our association is that we are still on our feet, what would be the point? After all, our founding parents that gathered for the first time in the late '40s did not gather to socialize -- they came together, instead, to try to change the world.The world those parents faced was one with only two choices with respect to their sons and daughters: send them away to the decaying government institution where they would be offered a full range of support, or keep them at home where they would receive no help from their government and where it was illegal for many of the children to even attend school.This is part of the story of what they did.
