What is Community Participation?
Community participation refers to the right of all people with disabilities to have an active role in society by being able to fully participate in all aspects of life which include access to social, education, employment, and recreation activities.
Easy Living Care Solutions will assist people to make decisions about their life and actively participate in social activities organized by social groups, neighborhood houses or sports clubs.
Benefits of Community Participation
Community participation is a fantastic way to get out and participate in your community, whether it be going shopping or taking the dog for a walk. Community participation helps you meet new people, make friends, and reduce social isolation which has been shown to improve mental & physical health.
People will be able to interact with their community and family on an equal basis without discrimination via one-on-one support provided by Easy Living Care Solutions staff which can include transport to relevant activities.
