Due to overwhelming demand for our services and a significant resulting backlog, the Disability Law Clinic has made the difficult decision to close intake for at least one month, starting August 1, 2026.

Our summary advice intake form will be closed during this time. We will continue to respond to clients with referral options, but our responses may be delayed.

We will use this time to address our existing backlog so that we can better serve our clients’ needs. We’ll provide an update when we re-open intake.

If you need legal help in the meantime, please refer to our resource and referral guide: Disability Law Clinic Resource and Referral Guide.

Thank you for your patience.

Disability Alliance BC is thrilled to partner with the Victoria Foundation and City of Victoria to scale up the Right Fit Program.

The Right Fit Program is a multi-partner service that matches wheelchair users with accessible housing and independent living supports, preventing homelessness, institutionalization, and unsafe housing situations for people with disabilities.

The program was started in Vancouver and is now expanding to the island through generous grants from the Capital Regional District, Real Estate Foundation of BC, and Alacanastu Family Foundation. Additional financial support from Victoria Foundation and the City of Victoria will allow us to serve more people who need it and improve wellbeing and belonging.

Locally, the program will be delivered with the Victoria Disability Resource Centre to help connect Right Fit staff with community organizations, housing providers and wheelchair users seeking accessible housing.
