Access to support for the disability community

Prosper Canada works alongside disability communities and front-line agencies to make the financial system easier to understand and use for people with disabilities. A core focus has been improving access to income supports and benefits, recognizing that many eligible people are still missing out on critical financial assistance.

Beyond tools, Prosper Canada supports a growing network of practitioners who work directly with people with disabilities. Through webinars, guides, and communities of practice, they share research, service design lessons, and front-line strategies for delivering benefits navigation and financial help in accessible, inclusive ways. This combination of research, technology, and community partnerships is aimed at one goal: making sure people with disabilities can access the income and supports they are entitled to, and build greater financial stability and control in their lives.

Learning Hub Resources for the disability community

To make it easy for practitioners and community leaders to get started, our Learning Hub brings relevant offerings for the disability community together in curated collections, alongside webinars, facilitation decks, and related toolkits you can adapt for local needs.
