So happy that the 24 hour Attendant Services Program can assist Benjamin while he attends Carleton University. Ben has Cerebral Palsy and uses a wheelchair. He has also been homeless for a year, and has struggled to find accessible housing and support for his education. His dream is to become a lawyer and work as an advocate for others with disabilities. Good start on this path as he is an appointee to the Premier’s Council on Youth Opportunities. Thanks to David Onley for supporting our Program and University, and sharing our story with others.
