Disability Financial Assistance

Disability Financial Assistance list ~ Share a funding resource tip

Long term financial planning

disability funding resources in Canada If you're looking for disability financial assistance in Canada, you will find it - eventually. It is out there (though nowhere near enough), but the trick is to find it and see what applies to your situation.

To help you in your journey, I've created this page of funding resources for you. I'll add information that I know and add to it as I find it.

You can help too - just add in the disability funding resources that you know of below. Your tip can be about any funding resource related to disability or other special needs, from any Canadian source.

It can include things like grants, tax credits, reimbursements, wheelchair funding, special education funding, autism funding, respite funding, assistive technology funding, financial assistance from government, non-profit agencies, charities, you name it!
Note: To the best of our knowledge, the information below is accurate as at the time it's entered, but we have no way of staying on top of changes unless you tell us. So, if you know of a change to any program listed, please be sure to add a comment on the funding description page.

Also, if you have any tips to offer on how to best access the funding, or want to share your experience in getting the funding (or not!) feel free to share that in the comments area too. Share your funding resource tip

Have a tip on disability funding?

Do you have a great tip about funding for special needs? Here's where you can share it!

To help make your tip useful to future visitors, make your title be what the funding is for, and who qualifies (by region if appropriate).

For instance, "Respite funding" (Ontario)

Add as much information as you like, including where to apply, your experiences, tips for applying - whatever you think would be helpful.

Thanks for your help!
