June 24th -Mental Health Board (NO MCC)

Attention all EDS Clients, Guardians and Supporters;

EDS will NOT be going to MCC on June 24th.

On Wednesday, June 24th client have a choice if they would like to go to the Mental Health Board for the Task Force meeting, or if they would like to work on the production floor.

It is my suggestion that clients take advantage of going to this meeting. The EDS program is funded by the Mental Health Board. With out it's funding, there would be NO EDS. With all of the cuts that are discussed, it is important to be as knowledgeable as possible. Families, you too are invited to attend.
