Dear Ms. Hoeppner:

December 2, 2010

For Immediate Release

Charlottetown—The Council of Canadians with Disabilities, a national human rights organization, praised the United Nations for establishing December 3rd as the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, because CCD saw it as one vehicle for bringing attention to the many issues persons with disabilities face and which demand attention.

Calvin Wood is from Windsor, Nova Scotia. He has worked hard to make People First Windsor an innovative and successful group. He asked the mayor for office space and now they have an office. He has registered their group for charitable status so now they can do fund‑raising.
