Communication Disabilities Access Canada

This project will provide training to disability advocates, including social workers, speech-language pathologists, peer support workers, and family members in three areas of law – consent and capacity, housing and attendant services, and access to essential services – that impact people who have speech and language disabilities (SLDs), not caused by hearing loss. The aim of the training is to increase the ability of front-line workers to support their clients who have SLDs who are facing legal problems.
