While there are many government programs available for people to access, few have money attached to them. Generally the programs have training or information available, and if there is grant money available the program is usually targeted to a specific industry and has even more specific criteria for applying to the program. Looking for the information can be time consuming but worth it if you find what you are looking for. There are a number of provincial government programs available to entrepreneurs with disabilities to apply for, as well as Human Resources Development Canada’s Opportunity Fund for Persons with Disability. Information in regards to Government Programs, grants and innovation can be viewed at the following websites: • www.mhr.gov.bc.ca/programs/disablty.htm Disabilities Programs available, BC Ministry of Human Resources • www.cbsc.org Canada Business Service Centres • www.cbsc.org/bc/search/bcsearch.cfm Search of Federal and Provincial Business Information • www.wd.gc
