Mike hasn’t let a lifelong movement disorder slow him down, thanks to Five Counties. Born with Cerebral Palsy, he began receiving therapy in 1976. He remembers Camp Omigolly & the "disabled games", which sparked his passion for sports. Read Mike's story➡️ fivecounties.on.ca/mike-50/

The holidays ❤️ are fast approaching + for some families whose kids are neurodivergent or have sensory issues, it can be far from a festive time. 🥺 Our clinical team has suggestions to help make the holidays more merry + bright ☃️🥳 for everyone.
