About Us

Our purpose at KidsAbility is to foster possibility for the children, youth, and families we serve, creating a future filled with hope and opportunity.

At KidsAbility, we support over 17,000 children and youth to reach their communication, social, physical and behavioural goals each year. 

We envision an innovative and inclusive network of care where every child, youth, and family can live in a future of possibilities. By providing early, family-centered support from birth to age 21, we help children and youth reach key developmental milestones while fostering hope and opportunity. 

What we do

• Assess, diagnose, and provide clinical treatment, specialized programs and therapies, and specialized equipment and resources for children and youth with communication, physical or developmental needs;
• Provide access to clinical expertise, consultation and support for families;
• Build capacity in the community through information, knowledge exchange and consultation with professionals and other organizations;
• Participate in research activities in children’s rehabilitation.

KidsAbility is funded through the Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services, valued community partners, purchased-service options and the generous support of our community.

A future of possibilities…

KidsAbility Foundation exists to raise funds and broaden awareness for support of KidsAbility’s vital work with children and youth in our community.

We explore and engage with community partnerships to foster funding opportunities, establish research innovation funding, and support capacity building.  

KidsAbility was founded by Rotary in 1957 to deliver pediatric services to children in need. Our work is strengthened by the generosity of individuals, local business and corporations, community clubs, and organizations within the regions we serve, each giving to ensure children and families have a local place to turn to for support with the specialized programs and services they need to thrive.  

Everyone belongs in our community, and you reinforce that message every time you give to KidsAbility. Together, we strengthen families and empower children to live in a future of possibilities.
