and safety for people with disabilities in Canadian communities and workplaces. From installing automated door openers, constructing a universally designed office or retrofitting a washroom with an accessible toilet, grab bars and taps, the Enabling Accessibility
Fund works to enable Canadians with disabilities to participate in their community and the economy.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
