Disability Alliance BC (DABC)’s nationally recognized Right Fit Program will lose its federal funding as of April 1, 2026, forcing the program to close and leaving hundreds of wheelchair users without critical housing support.
To highlight the urgent impact of this closure, DABC are inviting the media and any affected community members to attend a press conference on Thursday, April 2 at 12:00 PM at the Harmony Building (1451 East 12th Avenue, Vancouver). Harmony is a Brightside Homes development in the Grandview-Woodland neighbourhood, featuring more than 30 accessible units and housing several Right Fit clients. Right Fit clients will be available for interviews.

The theme of the Spring 2026 edition of Transition magazine is Disability Alliance Canada: Growing Our Support from Coast to Coast. As we reflect on Disability Alliance Canada’s (DAC) first year, we hear from organizations doing great work across the country and share what we’ve learned about unmet needs that will shape DAC’s systemic advocacy.
We’re always happy to consider articles or creative work from our community partners and from people living with a disability. If you’d like to send along your ideas or feedback, email: transition@dabc.ca.
