Act Now
Empower U: Learn to Access Your Disability Rights Training on Canadian Human Rights, the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) and its Optional Protocol (OP) training aims to increase awareness of how to address discrimination using more familiar Canadian human rights laws such as Human Rights Codes and the newer international Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). This is training for persons with disabilities by persons with disabilities. The training is part of a project funded by Employment and Social Development Canada and implemented by the Council of Canadians with Disabilities (CCD) in collaboration with Canadian Multicultural Disability Centre Inc. (CMDCI), Citizens With Disabilities – Ontario (CWDO), Manitoba League of Persons with Disabilities (MLPD) and National Educational Association of Disabled Students (NEADS). Read more.

Accessibility Standards for Federal Heritage Buildings
Since the time of our last communication with the team that collaborated for the research project on Informing Accessibility Standards for Federal Heritage Buildings we have filed the accessible media copies of the final research report with Accessibility Standards Canada in both official languages.
The Design For All website has also been updated to provide anyone the ability to download copies of the final research report in both English and French versions. https://universaldesignforall.ca/heritage-standards-development-an-iterative-process/
The shared experience provided by everyone involved offered such valuable insight to this project. Thank you again for all of your time and input.
