Advocacy Services
Navigating social support systems can be overwhelming - but you don’t have to do it alone.
Need help applying for social assistance? Received a denial letter and don’t know what to do next? We’re here to help.
How We help
At Pathways, we believe that employment is only part of the equation. Stability and support are essential for long-term success, which is why we advocate for equitable access to social benefits. Our team works to help people get the financial and legal support they need to thrive—both in the workplace and in life.
- Ontario Disability Support Program (ODSP) applications
- Ontario Works (OW) applications
- Employment Insurance (EI) claims
- Canada Pension Plan – Disability (CPP-D) applications
If your application is denied, we offer no-cost legal representation to help you navigate the appeals process and work towards the support you deserve.
Appealing A Decision
If your application for ODSP or CPP-D was denied, you’re not alone—many people with strong cases are denied the first time. But a denial doesn’t mean the end of the road. Our team is here to guide you through the appeal process and work with you towards receiving your benefits.
And all of this at no cost to you. All of our services are free.
We have a team of paralegals on staff that can represent you through the appeal process.
Pathways is a Civil Society Organization registered under the Law Society of Ontario
