The Arc Ontario has received a $186,000 grant from the Mother Cabrini Health Foundation to enhance staff retention efforts. The funding will help strengthen the agency’s workforce, ensuring continued high-quality support for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
The grant will fund a new Success Coach to improve onboarding and professional development, while data-driven strategies will help identify and address staff turnover. The initiative aims to create a more sustainable and fulfilling work environment.
This grant is part of the foundation’s $208 million in statewide funding to improve health and social services. Arc Ontario leaders say the support will significantly impact the quality of care for those they serve.
