Hamilton is full of resources and the purpose of this book is to organize them so service providers can better serve the community. The book is supplementary to Hamilton Public Library’s Redbook and hnhbhealthline.ca. The benefit of having this supplementary book is so additional notes can be added to ease the process of workers accessing programs.
The original form is in Google Document and is intended to be constantly changed. The booklet is intended to be used by service providers. However, the general public may also use this
(links to download a PDF and a Plain Text accessible version of the booklet are at the bottom of the page).
Organizations involved in the development of this book include:
Disability Justice Network of Ontario
Hamilton Centre for Civic Inclusion
Hamilton Community Legal Clinic
Social Planning and Research Council of Hamilton
