Effective policy advocacy depends on good-quality evidence developed by a dedicated cadre of scholars working collaboratively with disabled people and disability organizations. In recent years, twelve Disability Studies programs have emerged at post-secondary institutions in Canada – 5 Baccalaureate programs, 5 Masters’ programs, and 2 Doctoral programs. Of course there are other programs that offer disability-related courses and content, but these 12 are explicitly focused on Disability Studies, and offer degree programs in Disability Studies. For more information on these programs, see the attached tables.
