WHAT WE DO

Vision:

A Canada where all people labelled with an intellectual Disability have the support needed to live in community and not in an institution.

 

Mission:

To close all institutions in Canada that specifically house people labeled with an intellectual disability.

 

Purpose of the IC & PFC National Task Force on Deinstitutionalization

The Task Force has two goals. The first is to close institutions that house people with intellectual disabilities. The second is to make sure people with intellectual disabilities and their families have the supports they need to live fully inclusive lives in the community.

Our work is based on the United Nations Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities (UNCRPD).  It is also based on the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People (UNDRIP).
