Microboards: Sustaining your Future

WHEN: October 16, 2024 at 7pm

As a parent or caregiver, you may have asked yourself the difficult question: who will care for my loved one with a disability when I no longer can? To ease this concern, you may want to consider a Microboard – a solution that offers a formal, personalized support network by creating a non-profit board of family and friends. Microboards ensure that people with disabilities are surrounded by those who truly know and care for them, providing families with the peace of mind that their loved ones will be protected and supported, both now and long into the future.

In this webcast, Executive Director Karen Bell from Microboards Ontario’s, will introduce families to this innovative concept, and discuss things that families should consider when deciding if a Microboard is the right fit for them. Join us for a live Q&A following the webcast.
