The supplement for handicapped children
The purpose of the supplement for handicapped children is to provide financial assistance for families to help with the care and education of a handicapped child. The handicap must significantly limit the child in carrying out daily activities for a period expected to last for at least 1 year.
The supplement for handicapped children is the same, that is, 183 $ a month, for all children who meet the Régie's eligibility criteria, regardless of family income or type of handicap. That amount is not taxable and is indexed in January of each year.
