About the book
This Ontario edition of Safe and Secure was prepared by Partners for Planning, and references the original publication by PLAN and Plan Institute.
Safe and Secure helps you imagine, plan, and take action toward building a good and purposeful life, and a secure future for your family member. Today, families must be creative and resilient in finding solutions to complex challenges—often with fewer resources and supports. Planning ahead is crucial so your family member can continue living a safe, happy, and meaningful life well into the future. Think of Safe and Secure as a guidebook for that future—one that helps your family member thrive and live a life rooted in community.
The Law Foundation of Ontario made this Ontario edition possible.
