Applications for the 2026-2027 School Year will open in January 2027.

Project SEARCH is an international, award winning one-year school to work transition program for students with intellectual disabilities. TVDSB is proud to partner with March of Dimes Canada and St. Joseph’s Health Care London to provide this program for secondary students. The goal of the program is to gain the skills to pursue year-round employment, of 20 hours per week or more, at a competitive wage in a work setting that is inclusive of interest to the student. St. Joseph’s Health Care London has organized three dynamic 10-week internships for the students interns at Parkwood Institute in a variety of departments. The student interns involved in Project SEARCH glean real life experiences through this experience.

Students in our Forest City Program have gone on to successfully complete the Project SEARCH program in their 6th or 7th years of High School.
