About Supportive Options & Solutions

After years of working in the Social Service field, SOS Supportive Options & Solutions has evolved since it’s initial conception in 2004. Nellie has worked hard to develop innovative programs and support systems for her clients over the years.

“My constant driving force through my career and business is to look for ways to help fulfill the needs and dreams of my clients. I thrive on advocating for my client’s greatest benefits and strive to go above and beyond what was required to reach higher.”

Her work with special needs clients and their families naturally led to suggesting to apply for the Disability Tax Credit. Unfortunately, they would often continuously apply and be denied over and over. Nellie started her own research study to discover what factors determined an applicant’s success or denial.

In 2011 Nellie became a Disability Tax Credit Specialist, which allowed her to assist her clients and their medical professionals to submit successful applications. By assembling a dedicated & caring team that continues to study and adapt to the continuously changing requirements for Disability Tax Credit applications, SOS is able to provide clients with the most up-to-date information. Nellie and her team, combine their knowledge and expertise to ensure the highest level of success, which reduces time and frustration when submitting applications.

SOS Supportive Options & Solutions is proud to now offer personal, professional, and streamlined successful Disability Tax Credit services in addition to family support services.

Nellie really helped me to realize my goals in my own community. She is a kind and gentle person who is also very practical. One example of how Nellie helped me is that I have always wanted to be a mechanic. Over a number of years, Nellie found people to teach me skills for repairing bicycles and helped me get the appropriate tools, as well as bicycles to repair and sell. I love every minute of doing that work and people often contact me directly when they have a bike that can be fixed up for re-sale.

Nellie has been an invaluable resource to our family. Since our daughter was little Nellie not only offered support but assisted us with concrete planning, problem solving & goal setting, always keeping the vision alive for our daughter. She has done this with caring, optimism and an empowering belief in the rights and potential of people with special needs. Thanks to Nellie that vision is now a reality as Jade is living a life happy and included in her community.
