14.3% of Canadians report having a disability. Canadians with disabilities are more than twice as likely to live in poverty than other Canadians. They face exclusion from quality education, from employment and from participation in their communities. CCD's Social Policy Committee provides leadership on addressing the social and economic exclusion of persons with disabilities.

Our archives contain material that will be of interest to researchers.

CCD keeps its members and others informed by publishing reports and newsletters.
