Join the Accessible Organizations Project during National AccessAbility Week on June 3 at 2 pm PDT as we share impactful stories of communities and organizations that are removing barriers in the spirit of the Accessible B.C. Act.
We look forward to hosting this important celebration of accessibility wins from across B.C. Whether it’s creating accessible bus stops in Richmond, designing a fully accessible town square in Alert Bay, or creating accessible classrooms at post-secondary schools, there is a wealth of inspiring stories happening every day. We’re excited to share these important stories with you!
This event is free and open to the public. Register here.
If you have an accessibility win you would like to highlight, please reach out to Roberta McDonald, Accessible Organizations Project Manager at roberta@dabc.ca or Local Government Liaison Anna Wijeshinghe: anna@dabc.ca
About the Accessible Organizations Project
The Accessible Organizations Project is a project funded by the Government of British Columbia and led by Disability Alliance BC. The purpose of the project is to support over 750 Prescribed Organizations in meeting the requirements of the Accessible BC Act. Disability Alliance BC is working directly with partners and collaborators in all sectors to reach Prescribed Organizations and provide them with resources and services to establish a committee, develop a plan, and create a public feedback mechanism.
