Let’s Talk!

People who are deafblind or their families who wish to apply for new or enhanced ministry-funded services must apply through the AIS.

Access Intervenor Services (AIS) is a digital, single point of access for the Intervenor Services program in Ontario intended to connect people who are deafblind and their families with available services and supports through a common access mechanism.

The AIS can be accessed online at www.accessintervenorservices.com.

People with a developmental disability who are Deaf, hard of hearing or use non-traditional forms of communication can apply for service through Developmental Services Ontario (DSO).

There are 9 DSO locations across Ontario to help you access the supports available in your community. For more information, visit www.dsontario.ca.
