Passport Program http://www.mcss.gov.on.ca/en/mcss/programs/developmental/servicesupport/passport.aspx

Passport is a program that helps adults 18 years or older with a developmental disability to participate in their communities. It also helps caregivers of an adult with a developmental disability take a break from their caregiving responsibilities.

Passport provides funding for services and supports so adults with a developmental disability can:

• Take part in community classes or recreational programs
• Develop work, volunteer, and daily life skills
• Get temporary respite for their  caregivers

Eligibility:

• People with a developmental disability 
• 18-years-old or older 
• Need support to participate in the community while they are still in school, or;
• Have left school and are living on their own, with family or independently in a supportive living arrangement
