Supporting our Mates with Disabilities
Support Mates was founded on the idea that those with intellectual and physical disabilities benefit from having the support of a mate, someone to help navigate what it means to build independence.
Based on participant goals and through Support Mates tailored services, we assist our Mates with daily living, social & community participation, and self-care activities.
Services
Support Mates provides person-centred and tailored support for people with disabilities – while promoting inclusion, innovative community participation and independence building opportunities.
Our services range from physical fitness support and community event companionship – to assistance with self-care and achieving independence goals.
Our role is to provide experienced comprehensive support, while bolstering independent choice and control. Support Mates encourage Mates to achieve their goals within society – limitless and independently supported.
