Our Mission
To advocate for Microboards in Ontario and provide people in this province with the resources they need, including education and trusted connections, to develop one.
Microboard Principles & Functions
The key principle of a Microboard is that each person has the capacity to express their will and preferences in some way. As a result, each person can be involved in directing their life and taking charge of key decisions with the support of others.
Microboards are all about relationships, and how those relationships help provide insight, feedback and support for a person with a developmental (or any) disability where support is required.
