As we have begun to have conversations with people, discoveries and uncovering of histories is occurring right before us.<\/p>\n<p>This historic project sees Family Alliance Ontario (FAO) joining with Family Networks from across Ontario to organize community gatherings. We invite survivors and their families to share their experiences. While the large institutions are closed, institutional practices which control, and harm people still exist. This project will bring forth the inherent dangers of the institutional model of care that people continue to experience today.<\/p>\n<p>A travelling educational exhibit will be developed to share the stories of survivors and families with the general public. It will be displayed in libraries, schools, museums, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Family Alliance Ontario is an autonomous, not-for-profit alliance of families and people with disabilities who offer knowledge, tools and networking opportunities to families, people with disabilities and friends. Its mission is to assist people with disabilities and families in realizing a vision that includes valued relationships, choice and control over their lives, meaningful contribution and participation in their community through valued social roles, personal social integration and valued social participation. For over 20 years Family Alliance Ontario has been supporting local family networks to bring people together in order to create positive social change.<\/p>\n<p>If you are a survivor, a family member of a survivor or know of someone who wants to tell their story, please contact:<\/p>\n<p>Carla O\u2019Neill<br \/>\nMuskoka Family Network<br \/>\nTelephone: 705-783-3012<br \/>\nEmail: muskokafamilynetwork@gmail.com<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!
