Hidden Mobility Disabilities Project
This project, sponsored by the Hidden Mobility Disabilities Alliance and funded by Accessibility Standards Canada, explores possible changes to federal accessibility standards needed to address an often overlooked area of disability – that of hidden mobility disabilities (HMD), or the ability to walk independently but no more than a short distance and to stand unsupported but only for a brief time. HMD affects, at a minimum, half a million Canadians. To date, no accessibility standards have addressed distance to be walked or time standing as access barriers.
