  • Enhancing Safety At
    Branching Out Fall 2019 Enhancing Safety at ESS Walking into our South Adult Day Program, you will be immediately greeted by friendly smiles and cheerful waves from staff, volunteers and seniors attending program. Located in a quiet residential area of South Etobicoke, this program provides a welcoming, inclusive and comfortable home-like space which supports the health and daily living needs of adults and seniors living with Alzheimer's and other dementias. Our program is a special place and a much-needed community resource. With the help of funding from the Central Local Health Integration Network (LHIN) and fundraising dollars from Home Instead Foundation of Canada's 2018 GIVE65 online giving campaign, we have been able to make safety improvements, as well as enhancements to the daily comfort and enjoyment of the individuals attending the program. Using funding received from the Central LHIN, we have: ■ Installed coded security systems to prevent seniors attending the program from wandering outside unattended and emergency call systems in the washrooms; ■ Replaced aging furniture with durable, senior-friendly chairs which are easy for staff to slide and provide assistance, and for seniors to safely move from a seated to standing position; ■ Hired a local artist “Murals by Marg” through Lakeshore Arts to paint a beautiful mural to camouflage door exits and divert seniors seeking an exit. Before After Continued on next page Continued from cover With the donations raised through the support of our local Home Instead Senior Care Chapter (Etobicoke & Mississauga) and GIVE65, we have begun the process of landscaping the back yard to create a safe and usable outdoor program space.

  • The North York East LIP Strategic Plan and Report
    The North York East LIP Strategic Plan and Report The North York East Strategic Plan has been developed around six areas of focus: Information & Outreach; Civic Engagement; Collaboration & Capacity Building; Language Training & Supports; Labour Market; and Health Services.Six working groups will be established to address these areas of focus. In- depth directions for each working group are outlined in the main body of this report Executive Summary In 2009, Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC), in partnership with the Ontario Ministry of Citizenship and Immigration, launched Local Immigration Partnership (LIP) projects throughout Ontario. LIPs were developed as research initiatives to identify ways to coordinate and enhance local service delivery to newcomers across the province, while promoting efficient use of resources. In October 2009, Working Women Community Centre entered an agreement with CIC to lead a LIP project in the North York East area of Toronto. The North York East LIP is located in the far north of the city, contained by Steeles Avenue to the north, Highway 401 to the south, Victoria Avenue East to the east and the Don Valley River to the west. The area population is almost 80,000, 70% of which are immigrants to Canada. A major priority for the North York East LIP project was to root its research in the real-life experiences of local newcomers and local community organizations. In total, over 400 newcomers & immigrants, and over 100 service providers were consulted and engaged with to identify challenges, solutions and new directions for the settlement sector in the area. Methods of engagement for both newcomers and service providers included focus group research, key-informant interviews, community consultations and advisory panel workshops.
