Spinal Cord Injury Ontario (SCIO) helps people impacted by spinal cord injury adjust, adapt, and thrive.
A spinal cord injury throws nearly every aspect of a person’s life into turmoil and places immense and complicated barriers in the way of their well being.
Physical health, mental health, family, friendships, home, finances, employment, love life, recreation, almost everything is changed by a spinal cord injury.
When leaving the supportive and accessible environment of the hospital, it is easy to become overwhelmed, lose hope, and not see a way forward.
Spinal Cord Injury Ontario provides help navigating a way forward, the lived experience of peer support, trustworthy knowledge and best practices, help with employment, advocacy, and equipment for people in need.
We are the primary source of services for individuals and families journeying from injury to achieving their personal life goals. All of our work is grounded in shared lived experiences and strengthened through relevant research, strategic advocacy, and accessible education.
Together we connect, support, and empower our community, bringing visibility and information about living with a disability to the forefront.
