A two-Day Workshop co-hosted by Community Living Timmins & Community Living Ontario took place on April 29th and 30th 2010

Some of the discussion included:
- Knowing what other people who are similar in age to you want in their lives;

- Knowing yourself and spending some time thinking about how your interests, passions, and talents can be built into your personal plan for the future.
