DID YOU KNOW?
Therapy
Did you know that crucial therapies like physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech, and feeding therapy are indispensable for optimal development in children with disabilities? The absence of these interventions not only hinders development but can even lead to regression. Were you also aware that therapy expenses can soar, costing families upwards of $1,200 per month?

Home and Vehicle Adaptations
Did you know that, apart from a small federal tax credit, families face limited funding for essential home adaptations such as ramps, lifts, and elevators? These modifications, often costing tens of thousands of dollars, significantly strain family finances. Additionally, adapted vehicles, crucial for mobility, leave families with a hefty expense of up to $120,000 for a basic new vehicle.
Childcare
Did you know that the Province of Alberta lacks dedicated childcare facilities for children with disabilities? Conventional daycares often turn away disabled children due to inadequate resources, training and staffing to support them. Recognizing this service gap, Kaleb's Friends is pioneering a new childcare model designed specifically to cater to the unique needs of children with moderate to complex disabilities. Join us in addressing this crucial need.
Specialized Equipment
​
Did you know that basic necessities like a feeding chair, adapted stroller, augmented and adapted communication devices, and special therapy tools remain uncovered by government programs or other funding sources?
​
In light of this, families are compelled to spend thousands of dollars out of pocket to secure these indispensable pieces of equipment for their children.
