25 Jun 2015

This update reflects the shared accomplishments of the individuals and organizations in the disability community and the business sector—champions of accessibility who dedicate their energy, vision and commitment to pushing us forward. [...] In the coming years, we will continue to work closely with our partners and together we will achieve the goals laid out in Accessibility 2024 and make B. C. a place where people of all abilities have the opportunity to succeed. [...] This accessibility lens includes working collaboratively with the disability community as legislation and regulations are developed, in a manner consistent with the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and the expectations of the disability community of ‘nothing about us, without us.’ Elections BC is committed to ongoing accessibility and inclusion in elections. [...] The Minister’s Council on Employment and Accessibility and the Presidents Group continue to champion strategies to increase employment and accessibility for persons with disabilities. [...] The Council, comprising employees with and without disabilities and co-chaired by the Agency and SDSI provides information and advice on accessibility and inclusion including hiring, keeping and advancing employees with disabilities.
