Our Philosophy

At Sara Elizabeth Centre our motto is “Let the Light of Life Shine”and we are committed and stand by in providing quality programs that will assist and support the diverse needs and abilities of individuals with disabilities and provide respite for their families and care givers. The Centre recognizes the
uniqueness of each member in the program and believes that “everyone can shine like a star” and can live more fruitful, productive and independent lives if they are provided with appropriate inclusive programs. We work collaboratively with parents and support personnel to provide a program where each individual with exceptionalities can grow spiritually, intellectually,
socially, physically and emotionally to ultimately reach their fullest potential.

Let the Light of Life Shine

As a community-based centre, our main focus is on providing everyday life skills, developing independence and building self esteem. The participants will express themselves through the art of music, drama and dance and allow their talents to shine throughout the community. Through workshops and retreats
with elementary and secondary school students, our clients establish a meaningful, lasting one-to-one friendship with their non-disabled peers. Allowing our clients to integrate with other “able” peers in a group
setting, not only helps increase their self-esteem and confidence but they
experience a sense of fellowship.

Co-Operative Education & Field Placement

The Sara Elizabeth Centre provides opportunities for integrated
employment and is perfectly suited for the Co-op students who participate in our program, especially those who intend to pursue a career in the arts, social and health services, or teaching. Their placements at Sara's Elizabeth Centre gives them an opportunity to shine and be mentors for challenged individuals.
This also holds true for all those students who come from local secondary schools to spend a day retreat or workshop with our special needs clients.
Volunteers have an impact and strengthen our ability to help individuals and families reach their highest possible level of independence. We offer a wide variety of opportunities for volunteers to work alongside professional staff at our Centre. Volunteers from co-operative education programs and/or field
placements effectively bond and work together with our clients. Our services extend throughout the year as we operate a Summer Camp program during July/August that also accommodate the needs of the special needs young adults who are still in school or in other community programs.
