Is your allergic child eligible for one of these two financial assistance programs?
In some cases, the Government of Québec will provide financial support to families and also to daycares that care for allergic children. These allowances include the Allowance for the integration of a disabled child and the Supplement for a disabled child.
To be eligible for these financial assistance programs, the child’s allergy must be considered a disability based on the criteria established by the government: the child must have multiple food allergies that affect at least 3 three of the food groups determined Retraite Québec.
Your request must be completed and signed by an allergist before being submitted to the Régie des rentes.
