Families

Integrated Adult Services Pilot Project

On June 30, 2021, the Manitoba government announced it was collaborating with persons with disabilities, the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority (WRHA), and the Manitoba Human Rights Commission (MHRC) to develop a pilot project designed to address gaps and barriers in services for adults with complex disability-related needs.

The Departments of Families and Health, Seniors and Long Term Care as well as the WRHA, worked together to develop a new service delivery model for adults with both a medical diagnosis and complex disability-related needs through a 30-month pilot project called “Integrated Adult Services” or IAS. A plain language guide (PDF) is available that explains the project.
