Disability Alliance BC has prepared this Help Sheet to help you understand what the Persons with Persistent Multiple Barriers (PPMB) benefit is and how to apply for it. The PPMB benefit is for people who are unable to work because they have severe and multiple barriers to employment. This means that your medical condition must be severe enough that it prevents you from seeking, accepting or continuing employment now or in the foreseeable future.
The Family Support Institute of BC (FSI) is a provincial non-profit society dedicated to empowering and supporting families who have a family member with a disability.

As a provincial organization FSI acknowledges that our work spans across all of the traditional, ancestral, and unceded Indigenous territories in BC. Therefore, we respectfully honour all First Nations, Inuit and Métis people, as well as their ancestors, who have lived here and cared for these lands. It is with gratitude that we can live, learn and do our work in the province now known as British Columbia.
