Did you know that Catulpa Community Support Services Inclusive Recreation program in partnership with the Children’s Treatment Network and with Simcoe’s municipal recreation staff provided support to more than 300 children with special /complex needs so that they could be included with all other children in our community who enjoy the activities of a summer camp program?

Catulpa Community Support Services is a registered non-profit agency serving families/adults and children with special needs/circumstances in Simcoe, York, the Four Counties and Durham. We offer a wide range of services and supports to children & adults with a developmental delay, to those with complex special needs and to assist parents in strengthening parenting skills and parent child relationships.

We are seeking community, minded individuals to join a progressive volunteer Board of Directors.

We are funded by Health Canada, the County of Simcoe, the Ministry of Community Social Services and the Ministry of Children and Youth Services.
