The lantern procession is designed to be a parade of lanterns created by the community. Deputy Minister Chris Haynes wants to meet with self advocates in a separate meeting to exchange information and get their views about Individualized Funding. Individualized Funding is an option for people with disabilties to have more choices and control about the kinds of supports they need to live in the community. A light lunch will be served. This event is FREE and everyone is welcome to attend.
All attendants can enter free of course.
