Almost half a million children in Canada and five million in the United States identify as having one or more disabilities, facing barriers that can prevent them from being included in the joy of trick or treating alongside their over 40 million parents, siblings, caregivers, and friends. Our grassroots movement began in 2017, driven by our family's passion for inclusion in support of all disabilities.

Halloween Villages
Treat Accessibly Halloween Villages create a curb-side Accessible Trick or Treating experience so that any child of any ability can experience a traditional Halloween.
Villages are scheduled during the day in the weeks prior to Halloween to make it easier for parents and caregivers to plan and organize.
Check out our photo galleries from our past Villages.
