 The Annual Reach for the Rainbow Conference, held during Reach for the Rainbow Week as proclaimed by the City of Toronto, is one of the largest continuously operating single day camp conferences in Canada. The yearly training event focuses on a wide variety of topics ideal for residential and day camps integrating children or young adults with disabilities. The conference features volunteer speakers from various agencies including Holland Bloorview Rehabilitation Hospital, Erinoak Kids, Adventureworks! and Epilepsy Toronto.
The Annual Reach for the Rainbow Conference starts off bright and early with an 8:30 a.m. registration, followed by an inspiring Keynote Address at 9:00. Delegates will attend a total of four sessions in addition to the keynote address and an afternoon presentation on epilepsy by Epilepsy Toronto. There are seven topics to choose from during each session time, so there is sure to be a session that’s right for everyone!
The 22nd Annual Reach for the Rainbow Conference is honoured to be sponsored by Autism Speaks Canada in its 1st round of “Family Services Community Grant” funding. Many thanks to sponsors Autism Speaks Canada, Humber College, and our volunteer speakers.
