“Volunteering with the Halton-Peel Community Aphasia Programs has been an incredibly valuable and fulfilling life experience. The passion of the H-PCAP team when supporting clients, and the determination of the clients to meet their communication goals has been nothing short of inspirational. The groups are a joy to be a part of and are empowered by a sense of community, compassion and encouragement towards rehabilitation. I am extremely grateful for this enriching opportunity to help make a positive difference in the lives of individuals living with Aphasia.” - Volunteer in Mississauga, 2020

 "Volunteering with the Halton-Peel Aphasia Programs has been a fantastic experience that is both highly rewarding and educational. The program allowed me to appreciate how each individual with aphasia is unique while helping them improve their communication. What makes this program special is that the groups represent community; there is always a shoulder to lean on, an ear to listen and kind-hearted people who support each other. The highlight of my volunteer experience was witnessing how much an individual with aphasia can improve in their communication throughout the program." - Volunteer in Brampton, 2015
