Episode 3: The New BC Children and Youth Disability Benefit

In this episode of The Neurodivergent Podcasts, Denise Mosawi explains British Columbia's shift from diagnosis-specific disability funding to the new BC Children & Youth Disability Benefit. She walks through what the old system looked like, why families of children with FASD were often left without structured funding, and how eligibility now works based on daily functional needs rather than diagnosis alone. Denise also shares where the transition currently stands and what's still ahead through 2027, plus a clear, step-by-step guide to applying through your local Children & Youth with Support Needs (CYSN) office.
