Your Roadmap with SCS
The roadmap provides an overview of our services by age groups to help individuals and families understand which service they may require. Information includes a definition of each service with their eligibility and a link to learn more.
Main Services Provided at SCS by Age Groups
Image description: See Map Legend below for acronym definitions. Our main services for young children are Children’s Case Management (CCM) and respiteservices.com in Ottawa (RS). As the child gets older, around age 14, it is time to start thinking about the transition to adulthood. Developmental Services Ontario (DSO), along with CCM and RS, play an important role in this transition. When the person turns 18 or older, DSO continues to play an important role in their transition to adult services, which may include Adult Case Management (ACM) and RS.
