Wayfinders

The Wayfinders Clinic is a collaborative multidisciplinary clinic to help connect individuals to disability services and information. The Clinic team works to inform individuals of service options and resources available in their community by facilitating virtual meeting discussions between providers, practitioners and families.

Wayfinders consists of a multidisciplinary team of licensed speech pathologists, social workers, behavior specialists and other professionals who are experts in their field, as well as Parent Network Specialists (PNS) who have first-hand experiences parenting a child with disabilities.

Wayfinders Clinic serves individuals with disabilities, their families and caregivers who meet certain determination factors, including:

  • Having multiple programmatic/service needs outside of the CED scope
  • Experiencing systemic barriers to receiving services, which are identified, suspected, or otherwise indicated (i.e., lack of identification documentation, insufficient insurance coverage, stigma/bias among providers)
  • Having health-related social needs (i.e., affordable or stable housing, nutrition needs, personal safety, transportation)
  • Needing supports while on a waitlist to receive other services
