Did you know you can donate disability equipment through CDRS?

If you have equipment sitting unused — a wheelchair, walker, hospital bed, lift — it could change someone’s life.

And if you’re looking for equipment, our free classifieds list real items from real Canadians, often at a fraction of retail.

It’s a better system when we share.

This one’s for the caregivers.

The parents who rearranged their entire lives.

You carry a lot. And you deserve support too.

CDRS connects caregivers to:
🤝 Caregiver support groups
📋 Respite programs by province
💡 Resources, guides, and community

You’re not alone in this.

The Disability Tax Credit (DTC) is one of the most valuable — and most underused — tax benefits in Canada.

If approved, it can give you:
💰 Up to $1,500+ back on your tax return annually
📈 Access to the RDSP (up to $90,000 in government grants)
🔓 Gateway to other provincial programs and benefits

Many Canadians don’t apply because they think the process is too complex or they won’t qualify.

It’s worth trying. CDRS can help point you to the right resources.

Disability and mental health are deeply connected — and often underdiscussed.

Living with a disability can mean navigating chronic pain, isolation, system fatigue, grief, and uncertainty. These experiences deserve real mental health support.

CDRS connects Canadians to:
💬 Disability-affirming counselling services
📞 Crisis support lines
🤝 Peer support and community groups
🧠 Mental wellness programs by province

You don’t have to navigate this alone.

The employment gap for Canadians with disabilities is one of Canada’s most urgent equity issues.

Only 59% of working-age Canadians with disabilities are employed — compared to 80% without disabilities.

That’s not a capability gap. That’s a systems gap.

Inaccessible workplaces, lack of accommodation, transportation challenges, and hiring bias keep talented people out.

CDRS connects people with disabilities to employment services, job programs, and workplace accommodation resources across Canada.

What’s one accessibility change that would make the biggest difference in your daily life?

Could be a ramp, closed captions, remote work options, better transit, plain-language forms...

Drop it in the comments. 👇

Every answer shapes what advocacy looks like. Your voice matters.

CDRS is here to connect Canadians with disabilities to the supports that already exist — and to push for the ones that don’t yet.
