ACES Microboard - Crystal Bowack

Click here to see my Photo Album

ACES Microboard was formed in October 1999.

The first challenge faced by our microboard was getting funding from the Ministry of Health. We received Ministry of Health funding by saying the Ministry of Children and Families was funding us for community support and that we needed them to fund s for Crystal's daily care and health support

Our second challange was getting a funding journal vouchered to the Ministry of Children and Families so that we has only one point of accounting and reporting.

We chose Vela Microboard Association after researching all other options. It best suited our vision for Crystal as we wanted her to have a fully integrated lifestyle in her own community.

The Microboard has given Crystal a full life with the ability to be flexible to her changing needs. She can change her activities whenever she wants to do something different.

Crystal's favourite activities include horseback riding, working at the Isabella Reader Theatre, selling Regal Gifts, playing bingo, and going swimming. That's to name a few!
