CanPlan

An easy-to-use app that helps people with cognitive or memory challenges complete daily tasks independently with step-by-step guidance and reminders and empowers users to manage life skills with less support.

CanAssist laid the foundation for what would become CanPlan over 10years ago. The app was developed in response to needs identified through collaboration with WorkSafeBC and was originally known as the CanAssist Task Management App. It was initially designed to help injured workers regain their independence following a brain injury.  Commercially available tools did not fully address the need for accessible task support. As a result, CanPlan was developed and refined through ongoing consultation with users, clinicians, and community partners. Now in its third major release, CanPlan has been further streamlined to support a diverse range of users, from elementary school students to adults and seniors seeking to maintain their independence at home as they age.

The CanPlan app gives students the opportunity to engage in tasks independently. It’s easy to set up and helps schedule tasks efficiently. Many of my students can now complete tasks on their own that previously required adult support. Watching them take ownership is amazing. Thank you to the donors—this app has the potential to be life-changing for some of my most complex learners. — Claire Moser, Inclusion Support Teacher
