Children have to right to a proper education in Canada! Some children need a little extra help and guidance, this is what we are here for. Vikki and myself have been attending placement all year in public schools, where we see lots of children with special needs who are not receiving the adequate help that they need and deserve. This is one way we can solve this problem, by spreading awareness. Another way that we can all help support The Ontario Ministry of Education and the work they do for children with special needs. So please sign our petition to let the Government see just how important this issue is, and how many children are not receiving the adequate help they so desperately need and deserve.

I have spent this week reading through the stories you shared in the comments and it is clear that many families are being left behind by a system that refuses to listen. The work behind the scenes feels slow and exhausting but I am not walking away from this fight while so many children still lack the basic support they require.

Seeing this grow makes the long days in those schools feel a little less isolating. We are exhausted but the path forward is clearer because you are here with us.

Give these kids the resources they need. It is not fair to leave them behind just because of funding cuts.

My son has been waiting for an E.A for months now. He is falling behind and the school says there is no budget left. This is a disgrace.
