The Brockville and District Association for Community Involvement (BDACI or COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT) is a non-profit, charitable organization, founded by family members, to work with, and on behalf of, children and adults who are identified as having an intellectual disability.
BDACI is a member of a provincial federation of local associations called Community Living Ontario and through this provincial body we are also a member of the national body, the Canadian Association for Community Living, known as Inclusion Canada, which represents over 400 associations across Canada.
BDACI believes in the strength of community, the beauty of interdependence, and the dignity of belonging. Our communities and neighborhoods are most vibrant when we are ALL a part of them.
We provide individualized support to people with an intellectual disability as they pursue chosen, valued roles and life in community. This support is designed and aligned to every aspect of people’s lives including their goals, plans, and pursuits for education and learning, employment, family support, housing, recreation, and advocacy. We also support individuals and families in assessing and securing financial resources and supports from the Ministry of Community Children and Social Services (MCCSS), Developmental Services Ontario (DSO), including but not limited to Special Services at Home (SSAH) funding for children, “Passport” funding for adults, Assistance for Children with Severe Disabilities (ACSD), and others.
BDACI is in compliance with Ontario Regulation 299/10 of SPIDDA (Quality Assurance Measures) and/or policy directives applicable to MCCSS – funded services and supports for adults with developmental disabilities.
