About THE STUDY

HELP US BUILD the future

We are in the first phase of our journey to help facilitate a better world for the spinal cord injury community. We need you to help us in this three-phase journey. See below how we’ll get there.

Listen (Phase 1)

We’re interviewing up to 100 people with spinal cord injury, family caregiver, and housing professionals from across Canada. We’re listening to those living with and aging with spinal cord injury and family caregivers to discover more about their needs in and around their homes.

Interested? Learn more about how you can participate. 

i

Survey (Phase 2)

Together with people living with spinal cord injury, we will design a home needs and priorities survey. Then we will gather data by surveying up to 350 people with spinal cord injury across Canada. 

Create Together (Phase 3)

We will gather a design team of people living with spinal cord injury, researchers, and professionals in accessible housing to co-create an evidence-based informational toolkit.

SPREAD THE WORD

 

We aim to make the Home Accessibility Toolkit free and widely available to support the spinal cord injury community.

 

We aim to publish the study results and make study materials and de-identified study data available to support research and knowledge transfer on accessible housing for people living with disability. 

This work is made possible by funding from the  

Craig H. Neilsen Foundation  

and in partnership with

Spinal Cord Injury Ontario
