This is the aging with disabilities phase 1 banner. The sub-title states: Development of a comprehensive knowledge-based framework to address the needs of Canadians with long-term disabilities who are aging. The banner contains 4 images: First a View of a visitable house with well-integrated sloping pathway from the street to the main entrance. A senior using a wheelchair is approaching his friend’s house. This represents the housing component of project. Secondly, a senior is transferring out of his car into a wheelchair while a friend shields him with an umbrella from the rain. This represents the caregiving/home supports component of project. Next a senior walking his two dogs in a park like setting. This represents the community participation component of project. Finally, a visually impaired senior is waiting for public transportation with a city bus approaching behind her. This represents the transportation component of project.

This Page is Under Construction.

This page is intended to share a wide range of events (information sessions, conferences, public meetings etc.) and initiatives (start of new research projects, release of a project report etc.) from community organizations, non-profits and government organizations in the areas of housing, transportation and caregiving/ home supports in relation to aging with disabilities. We will have a national section as well as one for our three target provinces of British Columbia, Manitoba and Nova Scotia to keep you informed. Being aware of events and initiatives that are taking place allow opportunities for national and inter-provincial collaboration.

If you have any events or initiatives you would like to share on the website please send them to Laura at research3@disabilitystudies.ca
