About Ontario Association for Families of Children with Communication Disorders (OAFCCD)
This organization was founded and legally incorporated in 1994 by a small group of parents and professionals who were concerned about the lack of a provincial voice for children with speech and language disorders. Since the first meeting in April 1994 a provincial Board of Directors has been established, chapters have been started across the province and the organization has continued to grow.
