Participation Programs

Life is all about participation!

TVCC offers a range of participation programs (camps and activities) helping clients and families to be their best.

The primary purpose of Participation programs is to ensure kids have access to an appropriate range of activities and experiences to optimize their growth and development.

These participation programs offer clients the chance to get involved in opportunities and activities that they may not otherwise experience. These opportunities range from groups held at TVCC or community locations for early skill development to supports for participation in fully integrated community programs. Is there something that you would like to see? Contact  us tr [at] tvcc.on.ca (tr[at]tvcc[dot]on[dot]ca)
