CNIB created this legal information handbook to provide helpful responses to some of the most common questions we heard. 

In the handbook below, you’ll find: 

  • An overview of your most important legal rights related to education
  • Answers to common questions like: 
    • "The schoolboard implemented an accommodation plan to support my child's sight loss. I don’t agree with the schoolboard's approach to accommodations. What can I do?"
    • "I've been accepted to a post-secondary institution, but I'm uncertain about what steps I need to take to have my sight loss accommodated."
  • Links to helpful legal services and community supports
