Dear Families:
Plese see below information around the Sight for Success Program from Public Health.
Dear Community Partners,
We are writing to inform you that the Sight for Success program, which has provided subsidies for glasses to support children in grades 1-12 across Wellington, Dufferin, and Guelph, will conclude at the end of 2024. This decision follows direction from the Ministry of Health and updates to the Ontario Public Health Standards. This program has been a vital resource in promoting children’s ocular health, and we deeply appreciate your partnership in referring families and raising awareness about the importance of vision care. As the program winds down, we encourage you to share information about other vision health resources with families who may need support. For information on vision health and other programs available in the region, please visit wdgpublichealth.ca/visionhealth.
If you have any questions or require further information, please contact Client and Community Support at 1-800-265-7293 ext. 7006 or via email at clientcommunitysupport@wdgpublichealth.ca.
Thank you for your continued dedication to the health and well-being of children in our community. Sincerely, Rita Isley Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph Public Health
Your John Galt Admin Team
