Currently, in Nova Scotia, 30.4% of the population identify as living with a disability, this is the highest rate in Canada. At Easter Seals Nova Scotia, we understand one of the ways to take down barriers and increase independence is the ability to access adaptive supports. These adaptive supports can come with a significant price tag that carries an increased burden on Nova Scotians and their families. With the creation of the Adaptive Support Fund, we hope to alleviate some of this financial hardship. Please click on the Adaptive Support Fund application to see the guidelines and eligibility criteria of the fund.
Applications will be accepted starting April 1, 2023, through to September 30, 2023, or until all funds are exhausted. Please note that any applications sent before April 1 will not be considered.
