What we do at Options
Food, Shelter, Purpose, Love & Belonging, we all share these basic human needs.
Some of us need door openers, advocates, skill developers, problem solvers and networkers to make sure we can fulfill these needs. This is what we do at Options!
In partnership with individuals, their families, friends and communities:
• We listen to and respect the voices of the people with whom we work and we help them identify their strengths, skills and interests.
• We assist labelled individuals by providing them with tools to empower themselves through networking, community mapping, circles of support, self advocacy, person centered planning, resourcing and supportive counselling.
• We educate individuals and communities about human rights.
• We build inclusive partnerships and break down barriers in the community through various Community Initiatives.
• We welcome people into the lives of labelled individuals.
• We connect people to opportunities for success in employment, recreation, living arrangements and relationships.
• We nurture our relationship with labelled individuals and the people they want in their lives.
• We imagine the possibilities and create innovative solutions.
