Family Alliance Ontario (FAO)  is a family based, non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the family perspective and working toward positive social change for people with developmental disabilities and their families. We came together in 1997 as a group of concerned families who wanted different lives for our family members than those offered by traditional services.

The People’s History Project was designed to foster an understanding around Canada’s poignant history of the institutionalization of people experiencing a disability. Our project strives to deepen the broader public’s understanding of the impact of the institutional care model on individuals, their families, loved ones and the community.
