Special Interest: Supporting People with Disabilities Q&A

If you are working with the vulnerable sector, there is a high chance you will have individuals with some type of disability represented within your program. According to Statistics Canada, “about 3.8 million Canadians (13.7%) reported having a disability in 2012.” How can we support them? What questions should we be asking? How can we create inclusive programs? Are they safe? Let’s Plan to Protect®!
