The Department of Justice has juts released this report in partnership with DAWN Canada researchers (myself and Sonia Alimi). The report is available in both English and French on the Justice Canada website.
Highlights from this important research include that persons with disabilities in Canada regularly encounter serious legal issues and that the system remains full of barriers for individuals. The report explores the most prevalent legal issues participants shared, how they navigated the system and the supports they required, and the impacts of these systemic barriers on individuals.
