COVID-19 has placed an undue burden on post-secondary students with disabilities (undergraduate university, graduate university, college, cégep, and high school students entering a post-secondary institution) who were already facing immense socio-cultural and operational accessibility challenges before the pandemic. Particular challenges include rising tuition fees and a lack of transitional support for online learning such as assistive technologies, devices, and software. To do our part to help address these challenges, and as we are still in a recovery phase which places undue hardship on disabled students, the National Educational Association of Disabled Students (NEADS) has put in place the Accessibility Resilience Program, with generous support from the Government of Canada’s Supports for Student Learning Program.

Le Programme national de bourses d’études de NEADS est offert dans le but de favoriser le plein accès aux études postsecondaires pour les personnes en situation de handicap, qui doivent souvent assumer des coûts additionnels pour leurs études, en plus d’avoir des obstacles d’accès supplémentaires.
