In this free 1-hour webinar we explore the access barriers faced by those with hidden mobility disabilities and options for addressing those barriers. Data from a June 2022 nationwide survey will be shared during the webinar to provide a picture of how HDM is affecting Canadians.

Topics addressed in this webinar include:
Participants will also be given the opportunity to be part of a project on hidden mobility disabilities accessibility, funded by Accessibility Standards Canada.
