Toronto Parent Events

for Special Needs Children

If you live in Toronto and have a special needs child, then you may be surprised to know how many services are out there to support you. The problem has been finding them. There are a number of organizations all over the city that support people with disabilities. But, each organization lists it own information in their own way. And if you don't know where to look, you'll never know about it.

We're aiming to pull local disability support information all together for you so that you know what's available. And, we're making it easier by highlighting them in a calendar format. Just click on any item for more details.

You can add events too, not only for your own organization or any event that you know about. Just fill in the form below! We'll be happy to add the information to our calendar for everyone's benefit.

If you already use Google calendars to help you manage your family's info, then you can make life even easier by subscribing to this calendar directly. This calendar will then be added to your personal calendar list, allowing you to integrate it into your schedules whenever you want. Also, the calendars are dynamic, so that any additions or changes we make will then be automatically added to your calendar. Just click on this button....

We hope that you enjoy this calendar feature. We'll be expanding this service over time. Let us know how it's working for you. We'd love to hear from you.
