Abstract: In 2022, the disability rate for persons aged 15 years and over in Canada was 27%, representing nearly 8 million people. Disability rates are shown to increase with age: 20.1% among youth aged 15 to 24 and 40.4% among seniors aged 65 and older. Additionally, while disability rates increased across all age groups (with the exception of seniors aged 75 and over) between 2017 and 2022, the largest increase (7 percentage points) was among youth. For the purposes of this fact sheet, the term "youth" refers to persons aged 15 to 24. For many, the period of life between ages 15 and 24 may involve several key transitions, such as moving into the workforce, leaving high school, or entering post-secondary education. This report will examine the combinations of school attendance and employment, with further disaggregation by disability-related (disability severity, co-occurrence of disability types) and sociodemographic characteristics (region, gender, 2SLGBTQ+ status, racialized group and immigration status).
