From frontline champions, advocates, and volunteers to the people we support, their families and friends, together we explore the different experiences, celebrate success stories, share memorable moments, and discuss pressing challenges and new developments in the sector.

Today, we have a chat between Brad Saunders, CEO of Community Living Toronto, and Chris Beesley, a parent and CEO of Community Living Ontario.
