Canadians with disabilities are more likely to be unemployed, to live in poverty, and to earn less than people without a disability. But we are talking about more than just numbers - these are our family members, our friends, our neighbours, and our colleagues.
Access to coaching, training, and resources to help them overcome their disabilities and improve their quality of life is severely limited. Chrysalis takes a Human-centered design approach in delivering personalized services to help
people with developmental disabilities overcome their challenges.
Unfortunately, More than 12,500 Albertans received PDD services (People with Developmental Disability Department) in 2018 — almost 500 more than in 2017 — the numbers are increasing every year and funding is getting scarcer and scarcer.
The need for services far outweighs our resources for delivering them. Additional funds will make a big difference in the level of services being delivered to Albertans with developmental disabilities.
You are a vital part of the solution. You can narrow the gap and help us improve the life of one more Canadian living with a developmental disability. Your donation powers our efforts and every dollar makes a difference.
Please contribute.
Together, we can make a big difference in the life of someone special.
Together we can ensure a "WIN-WIN" outcome for all.
