Summary

Funds accessibility construction, renovation, retrofits and communication technology; the closed 2024 call capped projects at $125,000 over two years, while the current general program states a $200,000 maximum. The 2024 call used a calculator with 11 flat-rate activities and required a contractor quote for non-flat-rate work; the current general program lists 14 categories. That call required a 25% cash contribution with specified exemptions, including Indigenous, territorial, rural or remote organizations and certain shelters or charities. No new call is announced, so recheck all stream rules before applying.

Eligibility

The closed 2024 call covered eligible nonprofits, businesses with up to 99 full-time equivalent employees, municipal or territorial governments, Indigenous organizations, transitional, temporary or emergency housing providers and early learning or child care centres. Public schools and health care facilities, federal or provincial governments, home-based child care and other listed entities were excluded; these historical rules require rechecking for any new call.
