DABC has received the following information about a new project and workshop.

The Inclusive Early Childhood Service System (IECSS) Project is excited to announce that we are holding our first youth advisory workshop in Ottawa on October 13-14, 2018. The workshop will be using the approach of Shaking the Movers. The purpose of the workshop is to hear from young people about their ideas and perspectives on issues related to their lived experiences using a rights‐based approach.

We are recruiting young people to participate in this workshop —  ages 10-18 living in Canada, who identify as having a disability, as deaf, or as having gifts (consistent with Indigenous worldview).

The flyer can be downloaded in English and French and an ASL version of the flyer is available here: https://youtu.be/jIV8z8QAm0E

If you have any questions about the workshop or registration process, please email Abneet at: abneet.atwal@ryerson.ca.

We are also looking for youth facilitators between 20-25 years old, who identify as having a disability, as deaf, or as having gifts (consistent with Indigenous worldview). If you know anyone interested in facilitating, contact Daniella Bendo for more information: DaniellaBendo@cmail.carleton.ca.
