It’s National AccessAbility Week (new window)! Join us from May 30 to June 5, 2021 to celebrate:

• the valuable contributions of Canadians with disabilities
• the accomplishments of individuals, communities and workplaces to remove barriers to accessibility and inclusion, and
• the ongoing work we all have to do to counter discrimination against persons with disabilities and promote a culture of inclusion.

When barriers are removed, Canadians with disabilities are able to participate fully in society and workplaces. This helps our communities thrive and our economy prosper, so all Canadians benefit.

Here’s a rundown of what Neil Squire has planned for National AccessAbility Week:

• May 31st at 11am PDT: Dr. Gary Birch will speak at an Employment and Social Development Canada panel, Bridging the Disability Divide
