    The Travel Training project was designed to increase knowledge and skills for independent travel among people with intellectual/development disabilities. The project was evaluated using document reviews, surveys, focus groups, and interviews. The evaluation was funded by Community Living Toronto.

    CCBR partnered with Mercy Corps, Conrad Grebel University College, and Community Justice Initiatives to conduct youth-led action research within a 26-month program designed to increase community security and reduce violence within four communities in the country of Haiti.

    The purpose of this project was to design and conduct a developmental evaluation of an innovative inter-agency collaborative that developed and tested an integrated system of support for people with developmental disabilities/dual diagnosis (DD/DD) accessing homeless shelters. The evaluation was funded by Ontario Local Poverty Reduction Fund via Community Living Brampton Caledon.
