What we believe in
Amicus ensures participants and their families can communicate and direct the types of support they want, and that they are able to participate actively in their community. We believe that every person deserves a chance to follow their passion and to feel included.
We facilitate this process by concentrating on the unique needs and interests of the individual and their families, their personality and the outcomes identified. We identify skills, strengths, capacities, networks and areas for growth; then, with your input, we design, implement and support access to tailor-made opportunities that provide inclusion in meaningful participation in community life.
Careful collaborative planning starts with the participant and can include families, friends, neighbours, formal and informal circles of support and our partners in the broader community.
