Family Support for Children with Disabilities
Support occurs anywhere children play, learn and grow. Our traveling teams provide individualized programming to promote meaningful participation in everyday life — from the home to the pool to childcare centers and everywhere in between (including preschool and kindergarten).
GRIT uses a Primary Service Provider (PSP) Approach. We work alongside GRIT families and community partners to guide and support the knowledge and skills needed to include children with disabilities in all aspects of life.
*Early Childhood Services by GRIT are funded by Alberta
