Programme Pad

The reopening of the Home Adaptation Program is welcome news. However, the scale of the application process remains concerning, particularly for people with significant and persistent disabilities and for tenants.

Finding a contractor, obtaining the landlord’s agreement and, where necessary, the approval of building management, gathering the required documents, and navigating the program’s many steps can amount to a real obstacle course. For some people, the process becomes Kafkaesque.

Read the article below to learn more about the program and the many administrative steps involved in accessing this assistance. (only available in French)
