#Epilepsy is the third most common neurological disease in the world, with 65,000,000 sufferers. More than one third of this population has drug resistant epilepsy, which means, medications will not give them relief from their seizures. Many will have numerous seizures a week, day or even hour. Some will have unpredictable violent seizures less frequently that leave them unable to work. The purpose of this webinar is to inform people living with epilepsy and their loved one of the provincial and federal #disability programs available and how to apply for them.
We are proud to have partnered with DABC to provide you with this critical information. Sharareh Saremi, is an outstanding Advocate with Disability Alliance BC (DABC), she will share her expertise on the following #disabilitybenefits: the Persons with Disabilities (PWD) Designation, Canada Pension Plan Disability (CPP-D), the Disability Tax Credit (DTC), and the Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP).
