Accessibility Committee Members Network Dialogue

Do you sit on an accessibility committee at a BC public sector organization? Join our network dialogue to discuss challenges and opportunities! 

As the work under the Accessible BC Act continues, DABC invites you to an online network dialogue in support of public sector accessibility committee members across BC.  

The accessibility committee is a key pillar of the Accessible BC Act, and your expertise and contributions are vital to this work.  

Under our Accessible Organizations Project, we’ve learned through community feedback that some committees are struggling to remain engaged. We are hosting this free event to offer support and connection, particularly for members who are in smaller communities and may not have the opportunity to connect with folks in other regions.

Gathering lived experience experts from various public sector accessibility committees, we aim to probe challenges that committee members face, while prioritizing best practices and solutions.  

Following a short panel discussion, a facilitated network dialogue will provide an opportunity for committee members to connect with peers from across the province, share learnings, and strengthen community partnerships.  

Please join us on December 8 at 1:30 pm for this engaging event. 

Register here.
