Disability WebLinks
http://www.disabilityweblinks.ca/
This site has been specifically developed for persons with disabilities
and the site design, layout and technical features reflect the
requirements identified by members of the community and internationally
accepted guidelines for accessibility. Human Resources Development Canada
is managing the site under the direction of the
Federal/Provincial/Territorial Ministers responsible for Social Services.
For the first time, persons with disabilities across Canada have a
dedicated Internet site. Disability WebLinks provides quick access to
information on government-related disability programs and services. It is
a single-window access to over 1500 federal, provincial and territorial
government programs and related services for persons with disabilities.
Disability WebLinks provides information on a variety of topics; e.g.,
accessibility, education, employment, financial supports, health, housing
and residential supports, personal supports, rights, tax programs and
transportation.
