Barrier Free Manitoba

Barriers make it difficult or impossible to do something. Barriers are a daily fact of life for Manitobans with disabilities. The barriers are small and large and range from attitudes to physical structures or policies. What these barriers all have in common is that they prevent equitable access to the activities, resources and facilities most other Manitobans take for granted.

We've had over 600 Manitobans affected by disabilities tell us about the bariers in their lives. The figure below shows the percent who said they faced barriers in the selected areas.

We have also had many Manitobans tell describe how their lives are affected by the barriers they face. We are pleased to make available a selection of their stories are available. Just click on the format you prefer Word or pdf.
