Assisting the Support Organizations
Transitions Wealth Strategies, as part of its professional mandate to support those with disabilities, also acts as a resource to the many Support Organizations, operating in the Province of Ontario, that are offering programs and services to the developmentally or physically disabled members of our community. We similarly support Seniors Organizations whose members often suffer afflictions simply through the process of aging.
We have found that Support Organizations are typically working with limited staff and funding and are doing all they can do to support the emotional and peer support needs of their consumers. They have little time, or at times the knowledge, to assist disabled individuals and their caregivers, in matters financial whether that be eligibility for government support and tax credits or for longer term financial support planning strategies. As well, legislation and funding programs are constantly changing which makes it difficult to keep up with the rapidly changing landscape.
Through seminars, workshops or “lunch and learn” activity, Transitions Wealth Strategies educates staff, caregivers, the disabled and seniors groups as to the financial resources, programs and planning strategies that can be used to support the financial needs of those with a disability.
We understand our audiences and appropriately simplify the otherwise complex material being presented to meet their needs. We also act as a one-on-one resource partner outlet for Support Organizations that feel their staff or consumers would benefit from personal help to deal with the financial planning required to support a disabled individual. We enhance your program offering.
We charge nominal fees to provide this support. As a professional organization we are unique in this regard. Other than covering our costs, our true mission is to give back our professional, financial knowledge to the Support Organizations that are helping those in need.
We would be pleased to explore how we could add value to your Support Organization.
