Written by Author | Dec 18, 2025 9:28:05 PM

A campaign by Community Living Ontario, OASIS and others to end waitlists for support services for people with intellectual disabilities.

#WaitingToBelong Advocacy Campaign highlights the struggles and barriers faced by people with intellectual disabilities and their families as they languish on the Developmental Services (DS) waitlist, waiting for critical support services, such as housing, employment, and community connections. This campaign aims to raise awareness about the long wait times that impact people’s abilities to live fully inclusive lives and stresses the urgent need for government action, funding, and community support.
