  Barrantes & Associates

  Fergus, Ontario, Canada

  Barrantes & Associates Inc. is a Canadian multiservice social services organization dedicated to delivering person‑centred, evidence‑based, and trauma‑informed support to individuals with complex behaviours, mental health challenges, dual diagnoses, and acquired brain injuries. Operating primarily in the Greater Kitchener‑Waterloo‑Cambridge area of Ontario, the company has expanded its reach through three interrelated entities: Barrantes & Associates Inc. (professional and behavioural services), Barrantes Group Living Inc. (residential group living environments), and Barrantes Community Inc. (community participation and respite services). The organization also offers custom education and training for social service agencies and has developed a proprietary mobile application, the “Barrantes Associate” app, designed to improve accountability and accuracy in service delivery. Led by Chief Executive Officer Benn Barrantes, whose surname forms the company’s name, and Chief Operating Officer Amanda Carr, the firm maintains a holistic, client‑first philosophy that “celebrates difference and supports individuals.” Barrantes & Associates Inc. is headquartered in Fergus, Ontario, with a mailing address in Guelph, and operates as a privately funded entity. While the company has not publicly disclosed its founding year or exact employee count, its growing portfolio of services—including behaviour therapy, rehabilitation therapy, respite care, and software development solutions—positions it as a noteworthy player in Ontario’s community support landscape.
