Quality of Care Oversight and Service Coordination

Specialized Care Program

Cota’s Specialized Care Program provides case management services to young adults who:

1) have a developmental disability,
2) live in fee-for-service residential care settings, and
3) have completed service delivery through the Special Needs Team at Skylark.

The program offers case management services to clients while also ensuring that the fee-for-service agencies provide quality services in compliance with Quality Assurance Measure (QAM) regulations.

The service does not accept external referrals.

Transitional Aged Youth (TAY) Program

The TAY Program supports adults with developmental disabilities who were formerly in the care of one of the Toronto-based Children’s Aid Societies. The program ensures that clients receive quality support while they reside in privately operated fee-for-service residential care settings by offering case management services to the clients and by providing effective oversight to the fee-for-service agencies. On an annual basis, the program is responsible for ensuring that each fee-for-service agency is audited in order to ensure compliance with Quality Assurance Measures (QAM) regulations.

To make a referral: Only the four Toronto-based child welfare agencies: Catholic Children’s Aid Society of Toronto; Children’s Aid Society of Toronto; Jewish Family and Child Services and Native Child and Family Services may make referrals to this service.

Workers from the child welfare agencies wishing to make a referral must contact Developmental Services Ontario-Toronto Region, 1-855-372-3858.
