Announcement of Annualized Funding for Extensive Needs Service
Sunbeam Community & Developmental Services is proud to be part of the Extensive Needs Service (ENS) – a first-of-its-kind partnership providing wraparound care for children with urgent and complex needs, and their families across Ontario – including right here in Waterloo Region.
Thanks to annualized funding from the Ontario government – especially the Ministries of Health and Children, Community and Social Services – and in collaboration with McMaster Children’s Hospital, Holland Bloorview, CHEO, and 30+ partners, this service can continue to support some 1,100 children and families each year.
Early outcomes are showing improved child health, reduced family stress, and fewer hospital and emergency visits – proof of what’s possible when we wrap care seamlessly around the whole child and their family.
We’re proud to be part of this integrated, inclusive and innovative model of care. ❤️
