About the Meighen Centre

Building on programs and services offered on campus since 1988, the Meighen Centre was established in 1994, with a landmark donation from Michael and Kelly Meighen of the then-Themadel Foundation, now the T.R. Meighen Family Foundation.

The Meighen Centre was one of the first of its kind among Canadian universities and is nationally recognized for its work with students who have learning disabilities. Several years ago, it expanded its services to include services for students with all types of disabilities, in partnership with the University鈥檚 Wellness Centre.

The Centre also works with faculty on implementing Universal Design for Learning principles, provides Mental Health First Aid training and occasionally conducts research to study a variety of topics that affect young adults.
