Muscular Dystrophy Association
Myositis falls under the umbrella of the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Please register at Muscular Dystrophy Canada. This may require a letter from your doctor stating your disability. Once registered, Muscular Dystrophy may help with the costs of wheelchairs, walkers, stair lifts, scooters, etc. They have a regional staff who may work with you as required.
Assistive Devices Program (ADP)
ADP helps people in Ontario with long-term disabilities pay for customized equipment like wheelchairs and hearing aids. For other provinces, please go to the provincial website for detailed information on support programs.
