This report begins by highlighting the underrepresentation of girls and young women with disabilities in Canada's legislative and political spheres, despite international commitments to uphold their rights. It examines violence, mistreatment, and the increasing incarceration rates of this population, especially among racialized and Indigenous girls. The report also addresses sexuality, reproductive rights, and the negative impact of ableist beauty standards on self-esteem. Lastly, it underscores the unique challenges faced by girls with invisible disabilities and emphasizes the diverse realities and resilience of girls and young women with disabilities.
