Approximately 8 million people in Canada live with one or more disabilities that limit their daily activities. Yet accessible housing remains out of reach for far too many people.
Together, the Canadian Centre for Housing Rights (CCHR) and Sunnybrook Research Institute have prepared a submission to the National Housing Council Review Panel examining the lack of accessible housing in Canada. The submission calls for improved accessibility standards and regulations, better programming and accountability, and accommodation policies that support people in securing and maintaining homes that meet their needs.
We are inviting individuals and organizations to add their voice in support of these recommendations. By endorsing the submission, you can help strengthen the call for action and demonstrate broad support for accessible, inclusive housing across Canada.
Endorsements will be accepted until Friday, June 19 at 5:00 p.m. ET.
