NEW THIS FALL: The Leisure Access program subsidy can now be used towards neighbourhood association programs as well as city-run recreation programs. Leisure Access offers financial support for residents of Kitchener with low income. Applications are available at any community centre, pool, arena, city hall, the Kitchener Market or online at www.kitchener.ca/feeassistance.

For individuals with a disability that may require extra support, the Inclusion Support and Personal Assistance for Leisure (PAL) program makes joining activities possible and more enjoyable.
