Founded in 2001, Heads Up for Inclusion uses the power of relationships to create positive and lasting change in the lives of young people who face barriers to inclusion, as well as in their peer mentors and in their communities. Research shows that friends make an important contribution to a person’s health and happiness, and that inviting people with disabilities ‘to’ strengthens our community.
To date, thousands of young people in Peterborough / Nogojiwanong City and County have benefited from developing meaningful relationships with their peers, leading to greater social inclusion.
