More than 20,000 British Columbians with disabilities have set up a Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP) to help them save for the future.

The Province of British Columbia is recognizing October as Community Living Month-a salute to people with developmental disabilities who are volunteering, working, and contributing to their communities throughout the province.

The Single Parent Employment Initiative will remove barriers to employment for single parents on income and disability assistance by providing them with the supports they need to secure long-term and sustainable employment.

Amendments to the employment and assistance and the employment and assistance for persons with disabilities regulations pave the way for significant changes to the income and disability assistance program in British Columbia.

British Columbians throughout the province are benefiting from the actions included in the one-year progress update on Accessibility 2024.

The Province is helping low-income adults and children access urgent dental care with a $120,000 one-time grant to support dental programs throughout B.C.

The B.C. government is making the transition to employment easier for families with children who receive income assistance by doubling their monthly income exemption from $200 to $400 a month and increasing it from $300 to $500 a month for families who have a child with a disability.
