UVic's CanAssist has launched a new website aimed at improving independence and safety among BC seniors. Ability411.ca provides information and personalized answers to seniors'
questions about technologies and equipment.
A unique exchange that connects UVic with Thomas More University of Applied Sciences in Belgium is helping students develop solutions for people with diverse
abilities.
Seniors with dementia and children with special needs will benefit from the latest provincial funding to CanAssist, a University of Victoria program dedicated to helping people
with disabilities improve their quality of life, with a focus on promoting independence and inclusion.
The Government of British Columbia announced $4.5 million in new funding for CanAssist during a special event at the CanAssist facility on April 5.
