Welcome to the Eastern Community Network of Specialized Care

Welcome to the Eastern Region Community Network of Specialized Care covering the counties of Hastings & Prince Edward, Lennox & Addington, Frontenac, Lanark, Leeds & Grenville, Renfrew, Ottawa-Carleton, Prescott-Russell and Stormont, Dundas & Glengarry.

The Eastern Region CNSC is a collaborative network of community agencies, mental health service providers, developmental service professionals and educators working together to better coordinate access to specialized services, improve the way services are delivered and promote professional development through increased sharing of research and training. Our efforts are specifically aimed at serving adults and youth transitioning into the adult system who have a developmental disability and mental health issues and/or challenging behaviours.

The Network does not provide direct service to clients. Instead, we work with existing agencies and organizations, bringing them together and helping to enhance their services so that together we can meet the needs of the individual in a way that no single agency can achieve on its own.

One of the tools the Network employs to enhance services and link agencies is videoconferencing technology. The Network has 18 videoconferencing sites located in agencies across the region enabling them to connect with other agencies and professionals in the region, as well as those located in other Networks across the province or elsewhere in the country or world. Videoconferencing is utilized for clinical, training and administrative purposes.

You will find more information on Network initiatives and activities, as well as training and educational opportunities throughout this section of the website.
