The Cultivating Community Wellness Initiative, funded by the Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services, seeks to support the mental health of Direct Support Professionals amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The goal of the Cultivating Community Wellness Initiative is to bring people together from across the sector to build up skills, and to connect with one another to help each other. With support from the Provincial Network and many other agencies, webinars and resources are offered on the REAL Xchange platform to help Direct Support Professionals and other staff in this sector get through the next stage of the pandemic, supporting each other, supporting people with disabilities and supporting our communities.
