(News Release, Winter 2004)
Our Annual General Meeting and workshop were held on November 22,
2003 at the Columbus Centre in Toronto and were attended by
approximately 80 family members, individuals we support, community
partners and staff.
The interactive workshop, facilitated by Bill Allerton of
Accreditation Ontario and Orville Endicott of Community
Living Ontario, dealt with the challenge of balancing rights, risks
and responsibilities. Many attendees completed a questionnaire
following the workshop noting that they found the presentation to be
very valuable and would be interested in attending more workshops on
such topics as Person Centred Planning, Support Circles,
Employment Supports, Recreational Opportunities, and Life
Planning.
KPAS is currently developing a workshop on Support Circles
and will forward more information once details have been finalized.

for the time and place!
Following the workshop and lunch Robert Hart, Chair of the
KPAS Board, presided over the Annual General Meeting. Reports were
given by Don Laughton, Interim Director of Finance, Glenn
Rampton, Executive Director and Bob Hart. Roland
Beauregard, Debora Manni and Arthur Fleischmann
were elected to the board while three board members stepped down.
Bob thanked Lola Gorrill, Monty Hyde and Michael Cascone
for their dedication and support to Kerry’s Place Autism Services
during their respective years of service. They will be missed! Pictured above are Lucy Adea, Glenn Rampton, Ron Adea and Bob Hart. |
