Welcome to E3 Community Services
We are a non-profit, registered charitable organization providing comprehensive support services for people of all ages with intellectual disabilities and their families throughout Simcoe County and South Georgian Bay. Founded by parents in 1974 in response to a lack of educational opportunities and services, we have evolved into diverse services to support the diverse people in the region. From EarlyON Child and Family Centres and Tots ’n’ Tykes Child Care Centre to community engagement and supported living supports, E3’s mission is to support inclusion for all in recreational, educational, social, and employment opportunities.
