Researchers at York University have developed three information sheets from their study, “Impact of gender and migration status on accessing direct/flexible/ self-directed social funding for developmental services in Ontario.”
The study was funded by the Ministry of Community and Social Services (Developmental Services Research Grant, 2015-2017) and looked at the funding issues of young adults with developmental disabilities and their families. Since then the researchers looked at the findings and received input from caregivers, young adults and service providers on developing the information sheets.
