All clients have lifelong cognitive and intellectual challenges. In addition, each individual has further challenges that can include physical and medical fragility, behavioural and/or psychiatric disorders. CWSDS serves Dufferin, Halton, Peel, Waterloo and Wellington regions (Central West Region of Ontario). Flynn admitted previous governments hadn't supported Oaklands and it became an organization "that started to lose its way." "There needed to be a different way of doing things," said Flynn. Besides changing its name and offering more community-based services, CWSDS launched a dual diagnosis program. The CWSDS is also a Central West Region's hub site for video conferencing. Through the years, the former Oaklands had been the site of staff protests against cutbacks on staff, funding and training. It now also offers a respite program providing nonemergency respite for caregivers of persons with developmental disabilities over age five. And, it is home to Halton Support Services, which provides a wide range of nonresidential supports to several hundred individuals and families in Halton. NEW TO CANADA?
