Provincial disability programs

Disability Support Program: for New Brunswickers aged 19 to 64 with a long-term disability who need help to support themselves; support is set out in a plan and a financial assessment sets your contribution. Apply online, or call Social Development at 1-833-733-7835; you can start on your own, with a department or community agency worker or with an independent facilitator from Inclusion NB. People on social assistance can ask their case manager about certification by the Medical Advisory Board (Blind, Deaf or Disabled category).

Benefit amounts and asset limits change and some pages disagree, so most are not listed. Apply for every other income you may qualify for (Canada Disability Benefit, CPP disability, EI, workers' compensation): programs often require it. Rules, fees and programs change and were read on 2026-11-14: confirm with the official source. General information, not legal advice. Quebec follows its own rules: see atlasquebec.ca.
