In the Greater City of Sudbury, 37,000 people live with a disability. ILSM aims to integrate individuals of all ages with disabilities into the community, fostering an inclusive, accessible society where everyone is valued equally. We provide educational, social, and recreational programs for both people with and without disabilities in a safe, welcoming space. Our services support independent living, skill-building, job coaching, and life skills development. Fundraising and government support are crucial to our success. As a member-driven organization, we are dedicated to improving the health, wellness, and quality of life for our members and the community.
RESEARCH & COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
We are committed to building a truly inclusive community through dedicated community research development initiatives. This includes providing accessibility assessment services and engaging in strong accessibility advocacy to ensure environments are inclusive and equitable for all. Our board of directors and staff work alongside local networks to identify barriers, promote inclusive solutions, and push for lasting change.
Skills Development
We provide a variety of training resources. We offer training in life skills for everyday living including cooking, reading, writing, and even budgeting! We also offer computer access to allow individuals to get experience with technology. We also have additional workshops that differ from month to month, individuals need to sign up for these workshops.
Peer Support
Peer support is designed to provide opportunities for people with disabilities to share their knowledge and lived experiences. Peer Support also offers individuals the opportunity to reduce isolation, develop leadership skills, and give assistance to individuals in exercising their rights and responsibilities.
