our programs
To promote and enable access, Easter Seals offers two hallmark programs that offers discounts for caregivers and persons with disabilities.
The Access 2 Program
The Access 2 Program is a landmark partnership between Easter Seals Canada, Cineplex Entertainment and the Canadian movie theatre and cultural attractions industries. Continuing to grow year-over-year, the Access 2 Program has nearly 50,000 active cardholders nationwide.
With an Access2 Card, people with permanent disabilities can receive either free or significantly discounted admission for their support person at member movie theatres, cultural attractions and recreation facilities across Canada.
A support person is an adult who accompanies a person with a permanent disability to assist with services that are not provided by the employees at the participating venue, such as assistance with eating, administering medication, communication and use of the facilities.

The Access2 Card costs only $20 for 3 years or $30 for 5 years
and is valid at all participating venues during that time.
The Disability Travel Card
Do you travel with a support worker? The Disability Travel Card makes it easier for people with disabilities to travel.
The Disability Travel Card is for people of all types of permanent disabilities who require the assistance of a support person when travelling with VIA Rail Canada, Greyhound Canada, Coach Canada, and Motor Coach Canada. Use the Disability Travel Card when purchasing a ticket for travel with one of our participating partners and one support person can accompany them at a reduced fare. The Disability Travel Card holder pays regular ticket price.
