In Ontario they've got something called ODSP (Ontario Disability Support Program) which offers those with a disability good financial and care support. If anyone from here would like to know more, you can check them out here - www.mcss.gov.on.ca/en/mcss/programs/social/odsp/

The Ontario Disability Support Program helps people with disabilities who are in financial need pay for living expenses, like food and housing.

The program provides eligible people with disabilities with:

- Financial help
This is called Income Support and it helps people with disabilities who are in financial need pay for living expenses, like food and housing.

- Help finding a job
This is called Employment Supports and it helps people with disabilities who can and want to work prepare for and find a job.

The Ontario Disability Support Program is managed and delivered by the Ministry of Community and Social Services.
