Webinar on Disability Benefits, Insurance and Financial Support for Women in Canada

HOVIAT Women’s Identity hosted an online awareness webinar on “Financial Support and Insurance for Women in Times of Disability in Canada.” Approximately 16 women from Canada participated in the webinar. Golshan Mosleh, Financial Advisor, provided information about financial and insurance support available during times of disability. Participants learned about the meaning and different types of disability in Canada, disability insurance, eligibility for benefits and services, and government support programs. The session also provided useful information about ways women can protect their financial future and support their families if illness, an accident, or another circumstance affects their ability to work. The question-and-answer session was an important part of the webinar. Participants asked many practical questions about disability, insurance, eligibility requirements, available services, and financial support provided by the Government of Canada. Their questions were addressed by the presenter, helping participants better understand the available options. The webinar provided an opportunity for women to learn more about available services and support in Canada and to gain practical information that may help them and their families during times of disability. Through awareness and educational programs like this, HOVIAT Women’s Identity continues to support women by increasing access to useful information and helping them make more informed decisions about their lives and financial futures.
