While sustaining a spinal cord injury will result in many significant changes in your life – your home may need to be renovated, you might have to retrain yourself for work, and you could require certain assistive devices to perform everyday tasks – the good news is that you don’t have to do it alone. There are many government services, non-profit organizations, and corporate charitable endeavours that can provide you with financial, emotional, and physical support.

In particular, the provincial affiliates of the Canadian Paraplegic Association provide a range of resources and a wealth of information to help your reintegration back into your community.
