Everyone is entitled to a proper education. It doesn’t matter where we come from or who we are, education is a fundamental part of our growth and understanding of the world.

Despite these obvious facts, it can sometimes be difficult for people to get the resources they need to find the education system that suits their needs. Well, that’s where NEADS comes in. NEADS, otherwise known as the National Educational Association of Disabled Students provides those with disabilities everything they need to excel.

If you pop over to their website, you’ll see the plethora of information available. On their homepage, you’ll have access to dozens of articles on disabled rights, NEADS’ new hires, and school system news.

Education

Their education tab gives students all the information they need on how to succeed in their post-secondary careers.

For example, did you know that the NEADS National Student Awards Program offers students with disabilities monetary awards to encourage higher education? Five different amounts exist, ranging from $5000 – $1000 each.

NEADS also has a bunch of different resources for students fresh out of high school. Everything from federal programs, transition programs, and funding and scholarship programs can be found on their site. They also offer additional resources, like books and websites to check out for more information on the transition process.

Of course, we could all use a little scholarship money now and then. NEADS can help students with that as well. Their sister site, Disability Awards, is a place made specifically for students with disabilities. There, you can search their database for scholarships available to students with disabilities across Canada.

Employment

NEADS is a place to go for information on employment, too. Students can visit the site for news on upcoming workshops, lists of career centres, and articles on employment.

Additionally, they have document to help you if you ever need to file a complaint. The piece comes available in a downloadable Microsoft Word file, so you’ll always have it stored on your computer.

Additional Resources

This site is a terrific place for students with disabilities. You’ll be able to look up a ton of different articles in their FAQ section. The site can help you with topics on:

• financial assistance support
• student resources and groups on campus
• where to find textbooks in alternate formats
• what accommodations are usually in place for post-secondary students

Similarly, they have a video library where students can go to learn about career paths, custom assistive devices, branding resumes, and how to disclose disabilities.

Conclusion

Whether you’re a student fresh out of high school or someone looking for more information on employment, NEADS can help you. The association and its website ensure they have everything you’re looking for, no matter which stage of your journey you’re in.

You also have the option to subscribe to their newsletter. Simply provide your email and name for exclusive access to all their new articles and resources.

It’s always disheartening to get bullied, especially in today’s day and age. Now with phones and the internet more prominent than ever before, it’s easier for people to reach you. However, there’s something particularly heartbreaking about being bullied for a disability. What can you do about it? Where do you turn? Who should you tell?

As upsetting as it can be, there are definitely places you can go. There are actions you can take. You don’t need to be ashamed of who you are or what you’re going through.

Speak with Your Parents

Your parents will always be there to love and support you. If you’re experiencing bullying or someone making fun of you, go to your parents. Of course, you can always turn to whoever you’re comfortable speaking to in your family. Sometimes it isn’t your parents that will help you.

Whoever it is, they will provide you with some advice on how to best handle the situation. After all, they know you best. In any case, you shouldn’t keep an experience like this to yourself. Someone in your family is easily one of the best people you can go to in times like this.

Speak with a Counsellor

Schools often have counsellors available on campus or at your school. They’re there to listen to you and help you through the harder times of your life. It can be shameful to bring this to your family or friends. It can feel embarrassing to bring it to anyone, regardless of who’s insulting you or why.

Counsellors will listen to your problems without judgement and give you some solid solutions. They may call your bullies in for a bit of conflict resolution or show you how to resolve the problem yourself.

Ignore Them

Whichever stage of life you’re in, you’ll probably run into someone who says something nasty to you. Sometimes, it’s best to just ignore them. Don’t let them get to you or show them that their words have an impact on you. Oftentimes, bullies refrain from bullying when they realize their actions don’t have the impact they want.

Remember It’s Not Your Fault

One of the best things you can do for yourself is not let someone’s hurtful words convince you that you’re inferior. You’re a person worthy of respect and love. If a bully’s words convince you otherwise, take a step back and realize that their insults say more about them than you.

Don’t ever let someone take away your self-worth. Your disabilities don’t define you and you make a lot of people’s worlds much brighter just by being in it!

Conclusion

It’s important to remember that people care about you, even if it doesn’t feel like it during times like this. Your family, friends, and community are there to help you. If you ever feel overwhelmed or unsafe, bring up your concerns to someone. It won’t help you to go through this alone, and there’s no reason you should. Remember that it’s not your fault and you deserve respect.

Life is full of transitions. Starting at a new school or job, getting married, and moving to a new home are some of the experiences many of us go through that fundamentally change our lives. The step from high school to college or university is a major milestone early in life. It is one that can be especially challenging for those mental and physical disabilities. But there is help. There are numerous resources and ways to prepare for this life change.

The post-secondary world can be terrifyingly exciting. You suddenly feel much more adult. The added pressure of selecting your program and courses comes with the greater freedom of making your own decisions about your own life. There are tools to help with figuring out how you will attend class, what you will do on campus, and how you will balance this with work, socializing, and more. The Transition Resource Guide for Students with Disabilities is an extensive source for assistance. This resource has a comprehensive overview of many universities and colleges across the country, including accessibility services on campus. It also details the support services and financial aid available to students, as well as accessible areas and transit options for the school you plan to attend.

Along with physical limitations, the post-secondary world can be a nightmare for those contending with mental health concerns. The community of students is much larger, the workload can be far greater, and the pressure on each student is magnified with the increased independence. Depression and anxiety can thrive in this environment. It is important to take advantage of counsellors on campus and talking to mental health professionals while still in high school, and to continue to do so after starting your post-secondary journey. For example, Carleton University has Mental Health and Wellbeing website outlining services students can pursue, such as counsellors who are psychotherapists at the master’s level.

Take full advantage of all the options available to you. Living on campus and having less help from parents or guardians can be challenging. The Erinoak Kids Independent Living Program teaches youth with disabilities to plan meals, shop for groceries, and clean their own place. It can be difficult for some students to go out on a regular basis. Queen’s University offers On-Line to Success, which is a four-week course done entirely online to guide students in discovering their ideal learning approaches and adaptive technologies that will help them succeed. The independence thrusted upon new post-secondary students can be overwhelming. Bloorview Kids Rehab and West Park Healthcare Centre in Ontario offer the Independence Program, which has participants have summer sessions and live at university campus. You get to learn how to identify your needs for personal care, handle chores, and socialize in a big city.

Everyone faces challenges when going from high school to college or university. Those with mental or physical disabilities face additional hurdles in this major transition. Fortunately, there is help. Many resources exist across Canada that are readily accessible for many students. Do not suffer in silence. Talk to your parents, teachers, and health professionals about your options. Starting your post-secondary journey can be scary, but it can also be the most exciting journey of your life so far.

If you have a pet, you know that taking care of an animal is a lot of work. Did you know that you can get paid for looking after animals?  Becoming a dog walker and pet sitter is a good way to earn a living for people who like animals.

Many people own animals like dogs, cats, birds, or fish. If the owners have busy jobs, they might not be able to take their dogs out as often as they need to go. When they go on trips, even for a day or two, they might need someone to look after their pets. That’s where dog walkers and pet sitters can help.

Basically, people in this type of work look after animals for their owners. Dogs and cats are the most common animals that need care, but pet sitting could include birds, turtles, fish, or even snakes. Some pet sitters accept any kind of animal, but others might choose not to work with certain animals which are too dangerous or for other reasons.

Dog walkers usually go to the client’s home and take the dog out for half an hour to an hour. They walk the dog and pick up after it before taking it back home. The amount that dog walkers charge varies from one area to another, but they generally charge about $20 to $30 for a half-hour walk. Frequent dog walkers can earn between $400 and $1500 per month.

Pet sitters can earn quite good salaries if they have regular work. For pet sitters who live in houses, one possibility is to bring the animals to stay in their own homes. Pet sitters who live in apartments likely need to go to the animal’s house since many apartments don’t allow pets. Some pet sitters charge by the hour, but many charge by the day, often between about $30 and $50 per day. The fees might depend on any extra work that the pet sitters have to do, such as giving the animal medication or even grooming the animal.

Becoming a dog walker or pet sitter normally doesn’t require any particular education, but it is a good idea to practice reading skills in case you need to read medication labels or instructions from the pet’s owners. Many people choose to buy insurance to cover the cost of injuries, lost keys, or other problems that can occur. Getting a kind of insurance called bonding is also an option.

Working with animals takes a lot of patience and understanding. Sometimes pets can be difficult, and they might bite or scratch the pet sitter if they get upset. Being reliable is very important, since animals need their food and walks at regular times. Good physical fitness is important for dog walkers, especially if they look after energetic animals.

People in this job might go to several places in one day or stay with an animal overnight or even for a month. Normally, they can continue to do other activities like going to school or another job while looking after animals. If you love animals and can be flexible, this might be the right job for you.

Have you ever noticed that whenever librarians are depicted in TV or film, typically they’re shown as stuffy professionals who rarely smile surrounded by dusty books? In real life, this is hardly the case. Librarians, especially those who are employed in public librarians, are important in establishing communities and connecting individuals to access not just reading materials, but also programs and services like newcomer services, disability services, computer classes, tax clinics, and so much more. Therefore, you’ll rarely see a librarian without a smile on their face as they welcome visitors.

If you adore reading and would like to make a difference in the community, being a librarian could be your best bet.

Librarians – What You Need to Know

We often encounter librarians at public libraries and school or university libraries, but they can also be employed by other government entities or private offices to maintain internal records and documents for references. Wherever they are employed, it is a must for librarians to be highly organized and aware of cataloguing procedures, which are done digitally most of the time now.

As a big part of their job is to interact with visitors, it also helps to have excellent interpersonal skills. They are in charge of maintaining library sections are all in place and all items for borrowing and returning are accounted for. For overdue or missing items, they may be required to do follow-ups and reminders. In public libraries, a good amount of patience is required as sometimes they will encounter unruly visitors. In this case, they take the lead in reminding them of library rules and etiquette.

Salary

According to PayScale.com, librarians can earn $48,250 a year, and those with 10 years of experience or more can earn as much as $70,733 a year.

Skills

Earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Library Sciences or similar degree is the first step to becoming a librarian. Customer service skills are a must, and these can be learned during coop placements or part-time work experience in other industries that focus on customer service, like retail and food service.

Pros and Cons

Like with any job, a career as a librarian does have its own set of advantages and disadvantages. One common downside is the long hours that are associated with the job, where some may be required to work weekends, depending on the location of the libraries. Some may also find it a bit challenging to handle visitors who display less than ideal behavior, and in this cases, they truly have to adapt a firm and authoritative demeanor.

A pro of working as a librarian is the opportunity to meet a wide variety of people who come from different cultural backgrounds or organizational levels. This makes for an exciting work experience each day as no day is ever the same. Another reward of being a librarian is getting involved in projects that aim to improve the community. For some, this is something they look forward to because they get a chance to make an indelible mark on someone’s life.

The world has never been so big… or this small. Billions of people are connected through ever-evolving technologies. We have the potential to make new friends and embark on different experiences using nothing more than our smartphone. One of the groups to benefit from this are people with disabilities. Assistant devices have opened up the world for many, along with buildings taking accessibility more and more into account. Yet through all this, many people still hold onto stereotypes and prejudices towards disabled individuals. Given how far technology has come in all ways of life, there should be far greater inclusivity than what we have. That is why it is so important for you to get involved and help make a difference.

Change is necessary. The 2017 Canadian Survey on Disability concluded that 6.2 million Canadians aged 15 or more have had their day-to-day life hindered by disability. That is one in five of us. Of working-age adults with more severe disabilities, an entire one-third live in poverty. Disability awareness is essential in helping this group rise up and fulfill their potential. There are many ways to go about this, and numerous means to do so in the modern age.

Awareness is critical. One major way that we have always been able to help one another and connect with people is through events. Live events get us away from our screens for in-person experiences that build a greater sense of community. Look for events and activities that occur around awareness days and months. March is Epilepsy Awareness Month. September 7 is Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Awareness Day. October 10 is World Mental Health Day. These are just a few of the countless examples of days, weeks, and months recognized by Canada and other countries all around the globe. By seeking out events associated with them, you can meet new people and become more aware of what those with disabilities endure. By taking that time to delve into that one particular disability, you will walk away wiser and ready to be an ally for those who live with it on a daily basis.

Education is essential. Events can help you learn things you never knew about a particular condition. By knowing what has to be done for people with disabilities, you can take action to accomplish the changes that will matter most. Music festivals have been able to accommodate deaf and hard-of-hearing attendees through ASL interpreters. Theatre shows with sensory-friendly performances open up the word of the arts to those afflicted with autism. Music, dance, and improve programs have been honed to help people with dementia live more fulfilling lives. By participating in events that concern disabilities, you will learn about the best causes to support, the most progressive politicians to vote for, and even initiatives you can do on your own.

We all have the potential to make a difference for the millions of people living with disabilities. By attending events for different conditions, we gain the awareness to know what needs to be done and the education to know how to go about it. Start by researching the different days, weeks, and months for various disabilities. Then check out their corresponding events in your area. We have the technology. Smart devices can bring us together and start amazing things. When we bolster that technology through events and broadening our knowledge, we equip ourselves with the tools needed to change the world for those who need it most.

The use of technology can be a very controversial topic. Some people do not believe that it does any good in our daily lives, while others believe that with new technology, we are able to do things that people would not have dreamed of doing today. Although it can be agreed that some advances in tech could have negative outcomes, it is not harmful to use it to help out with daily tasks.

For example, the existence of technology has helped us with the following:

Business

• The use of technology makes it easy for people to work from home. Not everyone is able to go out and travel to their jobs every day and working from home makes it easy. People can start their businesses and promote them online.

Communication

• Today technology makes communication simple. Having a conversation with people who are oceans away can happen as quickly as it would be as if having a conversation with someone who is sitting next to you. There are many options, such as texting, calling, video chatting, and sending audio recordings.

Data Collection and Analysis

• Collecting, analyzing and transmitting data is very simple and quick when using today’s technology. From the calendar app to the Dropbox app, a lot could be done and many documents can be shared from one person to another in a matter of seconds.

Education

• Learning new things in two minutes has never been easier! With all the videos and explanations online, learning can be very simple and quick. Students can also use technology to further understand any concepts that they have learned at school. Not only that but now there are classes online that students may take. With the variety of ways to educate oneself, it really helps students and people learn in ways that suit them the best.

Fixing Issues

• If there is a problem it is not difficult to search online to find a solution. For example, if one is trying to build something and they just cannot get it right, they can simply find a tutorial, solutions or tips online helping them complete their project much quicker and more effectively.

Healthcare

• Technology is used very often in hospitals and clinics today. It helps healthcare providers with several jobs such as assessing to recording their patients’ health. There are some situations where patients and doctors can communicate face to face if there are any barriers that may keep them from meeting in person.

Reducing Garbage

• Instead of having assignments printed on paper, assignments can be written on word documents online and submitted through one’s email. Also, as a substitute for having images on paper, you can have them in albums online to view whenever and wherever you’d like. The use of technology helps us save trees!

Technology is not as bad as people make it seem. If technology is used efficiently, it can help reduce stress and complete tasks in a short amount of time. Technology can be addictive, therefore when using technology, it is important to limit the time spent on it and set aside time for oneself and those in their lives.

Every day, thousands of cars, trucks, and buses drive down the roads, and they all need fuel. If you become a service station attendant, you will help these vehicles to keep on driving, besides helping people in many other ways.

When drivers pull into a service station with their vehicles, they might do much of the work of filling the fuel tank and cleaning the windows themselves. In this case, the service station attendant might be there just to take the payments and possibly sell a few chocolate bars, motor oil, or other products available in the store. Still, the service station attendant needs to make sure that the areas around the fuel pumps are tidy and free of litter, and they need to be alert and make sure that all customers pay for the fuel that they take.

At other times, the service station attendant might help with every aspect of the work. In this case, the attendant has to go outside to fill each new customer’s vehicle with fuel and also clean the windows if necessary. In addition, they often check the level of oil in the vehicle and add more if necessary. In winter, they might need to add antifreeze to the windshield washer fluid.

Sometimes, service station attendants might perform more complicated tasks like changing tires or replacing lights or windshield wiper blades. Usually, mechanics take care of larger repairs, but smaller maintenance tasks can be part of a service station attendant’s work.

Other tasks might depend on the size of the service station and the number of employees. A service station attendant might need to stock shelves with snack food and other products for customers to buy. For items like cigarettes, they need to make sure that the customer is old enough to buy the product. Service station attendant need to take payments from customers, clean the bathrooms and other areas of the building, and make sure that the fuel pumps have enough gasoline or diesel for the customers.

Working as a service station attendant can be a solitary job. Although people in this career work regularly with customers, they might not have many coworkers on the same shifts. Often, they work alone, when they need to be especially watchful.

Becoming a service station attendant normally requires only a basic high school education, but it helps to have extra knowledge about basic repairs and how vehicles work. Mathematics and at least some understanding of mechanics can help people in this career. Many people learn on the job, but a few courses at a trade school could also be helpful.

Wages can vary from one region to another, but generally, service station attendants start at about $11.80 per hour and can get to $13.30 or more later in their careers. Although older people can continue in this job as long as they are physically capable, the outdoor work and sometimes hard physical labour mean that people generally move on to other jobs long before retirement.

Working as a service station attendant can be an interesting job for people who are able to work alone or with others, who can work both outdoors and inside, and who enjoy working with vehicles. If that describes you, the job might be ideal for you.
