People with Disabilities
There are over 95,000 people in Alberta that identify as having disabilities .
This population group can live life to the fullest and enjoyably, but we need to come together as a community to support them in making our community inclusive and equitable for them.
KWIH (know where it hurts)
You can never understand the pain of another until you walk a mile in their shoes. Creating avenues to educate ourselves and creating awareness about the challenges of people wth disabilities is key to empathetic living.
Knowing their pain point and how we can help make our community more inclusive is key to improving the lives of everyone in Alberta.
