The Government of Canada is now accepting applications to its Enabling Accessibility Fund:

The Enabling Accessibility Fund (EAF) supports community-based projects across Canada that improve accessibility, remove barriers, and enable Canadians with disabilities to participate in and contribute to their communities.

The Government of Canada is building on the success of this program for people with disabilities delivered from 2007 to 2010, by providing an additional $45 million over the next three years.

While EAF continues to provide funding for small projects, Budget 2010 expands eligibility for the program to include mid-sized projects. This enables communities to undertake larger retrofit projects and foster partnerships for creating new facilities. Mid-sized project funding is not available at this time.

Organizations may apply for funding only when there is an open call for proposals.
