Facile Perth Information

Facile Perth is a non-profit organization, located in Stratford Ontario, serving people with a disability and their families across Huron-Perth. Our organization was founded by families who have a loved one with a disability in collaboration with organizations within Huron-Perth. Our founders recognized the essential role that planning and facilitation plays in building a good life. They wanted people to have access to proactive and intentional planning support to achieve their goals now, and in the future. Our organization works to support people with a disability to live meaningful lives in their own communities. We see community as the starting place for building a good life. We focus on natural relationships and existing opportunities first and we create new opportunities through collaborations with others. The most important part of what we do is to support people with a disability to make informed decisions about their life. This means our work is person-directed and individualized. We also value input from family members, friends, neighbours and other community members who care and want to support a person’s goals. Our facilitators help to guide conversations that allow people to make decisions about their life so that they can live with dignity, choice and control.
