For adults with Down syndrome, how much does it cost to live? Will future caregivers be out of pocket? CDSS is extremely disappointed over the inadequate funding allocated to the Canada Disability Benefit in Budget 2024. The announced funding falls far short of what is necessary…
A great opportunity for self-advocates and caregivers to take part in a study about brain health in aging adults with intellectual disabilities.
