We have 5 licensed children’s residences located in Mono, Orangeville, Tottenham, Stouffville, Markham. We also offer service into adult care, through transitional semi-independent living & complex-care needs programs for adults.
We provide an all-inclusive approach to treatment including; education, psychiatric consultation, life and social skills training and recreation.
Cedar Heights Residential Living provides a continuation of services with our transition age program Palmer Home. This allows for youth to continue to work on vocational skills, life skills and social skills from the age of 18-21.
Considered a long-term placement for many of our residents, Cedar Heights Residential Living strives to provide services in a home-like environment. Recognizing the need for personal space each resident in the program has their own bedroom, which they are able to individualize.
To foster self-esteem, Cedar Heights Residential Living supports all residents to be active members of their community. Residents are encouraged to participate with organized sports associations, involve themselves in social groups and seek out volunteer opportunities.
