In Canada, it is important to ensure that individuals with disabilities have equal access to resources and services. However, finding resources and filling out forms can be a significant barrier for individuals with disabilities, and can result in additional costs. The following are some potential costs associated with filling out forms for people with disabilities in Canada: 

​

1. Time Cost: Filling out forms and locating qualified resources can take significantly longer for individuals with disabilities (and their parents)who may require additional assistance or accommodations. This can result in the individual having to take time off work or school, or may require them to arrange for transportation or reschedule other appointments.

2. Emotional Cost: For individuals with disabilities, filling out forms can be a stressful and overwhelming experience. This can result in emotional costs such as anxiety, frustration, and a sense of helplessness.

3. Accessibility Cost: Forms that are not designed with accessibility in mind can create additional costs for individuals with disabilities. For example, if a form is not available in an accessible format, the individual may need to pay to have it translated into an accessible format or to have it read to them.

4. Opportunity Cost: Filling out forms can be a time-consuming process, which can result in missed opportunities for individuals with disabilities. For example, if they are unable to complete a form in time, they may miss out on a job opportunity or a chance to apply for a program or service.

​

It is important to recognize these costs and we take steps to ease the stress these forms can create, making forms and other resources more accessible for individuals with disabilities in Canada. At Canadian Neurodivergent and Disabilities Hub we can help ensure that all Canadians have equal access to resources and services.
