Highlights & Impact
REMAX continues to play a significant role in supporting the Treat Accessibly movement across Canada. The REMAX network of brokers and agents have helped drive national awareness and participation through media, events, and community engagement. Beyond REMAX, the movement saw record growth across the country as more individuals, organizations, and cities joined the mission, including ministers, mayors, MPs, and the Chief Accessibility Officer of Canada, who joined the movement in 2025.
Automating our procurement workflows gave us a much clearer view of where we were losing time and money. It helped us reframe the role of procurement—from a tactical function to a strategic lever for operational excellence.

By layering in automation tools that could adapt to our workflows, we were able to reduce reliance on manual tracking, giving us consistency and confidence, especially during high-volume procurement cycles.

The first-ever National “Treat Accessibly Preparation Day” took place on October 16, 2025. This dedicated awareness day encourages homeowners to post their lawn signs early, helping drive visibility for accessible inclusion across neighbourhoods. Across Canada, 25 cities – including Toronto, Ottawa, Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, Saskatoon, and Halifax – officially recognized Treat Accessibly Day and encourage residents to participate.
What Can You Do?
Prefer to print at home? You can download a Treat Accessibly lawn sign directly from the website and place it on your lawn to let families know you're participating in accessible trick-or-treating.
Support the movement by distributing candy and non-edible treats from an obstacle-free location on the property, like the foot of the driveway, and by posting the Treat Accessibly lawn sign in advance of Halloween to alert community members that you’ll be handing out treats in an accessible way.
Reach out to your local REMAX office to get your free Treat Accessibly lawn sign. You can also visit one of the 716 PetValu locations across Canada, where signs are available through take-one display units.

Treat Accessibly aims to recruit 400,000 homes to "treat accessibly" by 2025, representing one home for each of the 400,000 Canadian children who lives with a disability. Learn what the means and how you can participate.
REMAX® proudly partnered with Treat Accessibly for the ninth consecutive year to support accessible trick-or-treating. As of 2025, more than 300,000 lawn signs were distributed and 25,000 Treat Accessibly Village guests welcomed across Canada. More than 800,000 children and youth in Canada live with disabilities that pose obstacles to everyday activities, like trick-or-treating. These kids are among the 6.2 million Canadians (22 per cent) who identify as mobility, sensory or intellectually disabled. Treat Accessibly promotes inclusivity, by removing barriers to trick-or-treating activities.

History of Treat Accessibly
The Treat Accessibly movement started with a single lawn sign in 2017, posted at the Toronto home of then six-year-old Siena and her parents, Natasha and Rich. The family set forth to ensure one little neighbour, who uses a wheelchair, would be welcomed and included in the festivities at their home, by removing stairs from the experience and “treating” from their driveway. To help spread the word of their accessible trick-or-treating station, they posted a Treat Accessibly lawn sign in the weeks leading up to Halloween. What Siena, Natasha and Rich didn’t expect was the number of community members who saw the sign and joined the movement.
In 2026, REMAX Canada is expanding its support of Treat Accessibly by bringing inclusive trick-or-treating experiences to communities. 10 Villages will be hosted by REMAX agents across Canada, excluding Quebec. These special Halloween events will bring neighbours together for a fun, welcoming, and accessible celebration where children of all abilities can enjoy the excitement of Halloween.
Designed with accessibility in mind, the Villages create a festive outdoor environment where families can enjoy Halloween traditions, collect treats, connect with their community, and make great memories together.
From costumes and candy to laughter and community spirit, REMAX x Treat Accessibly Villages help make Halloween more accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
Join us this Halloween at one of 10 REMAX Villages across Canada.

Looking ahead: 2030 Vision
By 2030, Treat Accessibly’s vision is to ensure that every child with a disability has a home to visit on Halloween, marked by a Treat Accessibly lawn sign. The movement is championing 1.6 million parents and reaching 12 million additional family members, friends, and caregivers, while encouraging every trick-or-treating household in Canada to consider accessible inclusion. With seven million homes typically handing out treats each year, this creates the potential to connect with up to 17 million people annually and transform Halloween into a truly inclusive celebration.
