Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Impact of Covid-19: People with Disabilities

Dr. Frank Conaty:

It is a good example. Another very good example is adults who have intellectual disabilities who have not had day services since 14 March. The impact on those adults will again be different for different individuals but we need to understand what those impacts have been. We mentioned regression a few times. That is quite evident. We do not have the data or information to inform a policy response that is directed appropriately.
