Equipment for independence

Giving Independence

People are falling through gaps in the healthcare system and can’t get the equipment they need. Essential equipment like a wheelchair, a ramp, a pressure relieving mattress surface, or new batteries for a power wheelchair. Spinal Cord Injury Ontario’s Equipment for Independence program helps people get the equipment they need but cannot afford.

You can give independence today

You can make someone’s life better right now.
