Empower Simcoe supports fifteen children in four different locations. This option is available in Barrie only. Each location has support staff working hours throughout the day and overnight when the children are present. Children attend neighbourhood schools and participate in community activities appropriate for their age. Families are encouraged to participate in all aspects of their child’s life.
