DABC Advocate Receives Award!

October 15, 2014 by DABC

During their AGM, Burnaby Family Life gave out awards to recognize Community Partners and their staff members. One of the staff nominated advocate Ashley Silcock (and Disability Alliance BC) to receive an award.

This is what a staff member at Burnaby Family Life had to say:

“Ashley Silcock from Disability Alliance BC is a frontline advocate and champion for people with disabilities.

She has always been available to help us find answers to some of the tough questions we have to deal with when helping our clients. She has dedicated her time to coming to our programs and facilitating information sessions so that our clients are educated and feel empowered to move ahead successfully in their lives. We would like to thank Ashley and Disability Alliance BC for their commitment.”

Congratulations to Ashley and thank you to Burnaby Family Life for recognizing Disability Alliance BC!
