Advocacy Strategy Survey In Progress – Thank you to all of you who have already completed the survey prepared with our partners, Canadian Strategy Group. There is one week remaining to complete it if you have not already done so. Please take a few minutes and provide your input so we can better understand the needs and priorities of our Ds community.
We are looking forward to celebrating the holiday season with you so please register for the upcoming Holiday Party on Thursday December 4. There will be something for all ages and a great opportunity to celebrate the 30 years of EDSS with our friends and families. Please sign up for your tickets here. (insert ticket link)

Through the Eye See…Eye Learn program, children in kindergarten are eligible to receive free glasses and frames. Be sure to ask your optometrist about it!
We have launched a new Literacy and Communication Pilot Program this fall. It will be based on the Natalie Hale’s Whole Child Reading approach and be delivered through our Speech Therapy professional service providers.

30th Anniversary - History Photobook
We are still working on a history photobook and we would love to feature your family!
Whatever your journey has been, I would like to invite you to share with us a bit about your experiences – sharing your favorite memories and your family photos – both “then” and “now”. If you have a baby/toddler photo and then a current family photo that would be great to include in our 30th Anniversary photo album project.
We are loving the snapshots we are getting into the families that have contributed so far. Please add your families history to our book. Share your memories with us!
Please share your memories and photos with us at guest@edss.ca as soon as possible.
