LDATD Receives Grant from Ministry of Health Promotion
The LDATD has received a grant from the Ministry of Health Promotion to take our very successful S.T.Y.L.E. program East! The S.T.Y.L.E. East program provides LD specific academic tutoring with the added focus on physical activity, health and nutrition and personal wellness through social and life skills training.
This new project commenced services in October 2009 and has already recruited many students. S.T.Y.L.E. East is taking place out of 2 schools in Scarborough, Lester B. Pearson C.I. and L’Amoreaux C.I. in Scarborough.
We are grateful to the Ministry of Health Promotion for allows us to offer these much needed services to youth with learning disabilities. This program will truly make a difference in their lives – both in and out of the classroom.
