SOLD OUT! 🌼💛

We are absolutely blown away by the support from our community during this year’s Gerbera Daisy Fundraiser! Because of YOU, we sold out of every single daisy.

Thank you to everyone who purchased flowers, shared our posts, stopped by our locations, and supported Community Living-Central Huron. Your kindness and generosity help us continue creating inclusive opportunities and meaningful connections in our community.

We couldn’t be happier — and we couldn’t do it without you! 🌼

A huge THANK YOU to the Goderich Kinette Club for their generous donation to our Sibshop group! 💙

They even popped in last Friday during one of our Sibshops, which made their support feel extra special and gave us a chance to share a bit of the fun with them.

Thanks to their continued generosity, we’ll be putting this donation toward our year-end trip to Camp Kintail.

We’re so grateful for their ongoing support of our program and our community!

Join us tomorrow in Seaforth.
Parents and caregivers of diverse learners are invited to join us for our Community Connections Transition Fair. This event is designed to support families as children and youth move through key life transitions—school changes, post-secondary planning, employment, community involvement, and adulthood.
Connect with local agencies, service providers, and community partners, ask questions, explore available supports, and build meaningful connections with other caregivers who understand the journey.
Whether you’re just starting to think about transitions or are actively planning next steps, this fair offers valuable information, resources, and reassurance that you’re not alone.
