DABC has opened our annual Accessibility Projects Grants application process.

As part of the Province’s goal to improve accessibility for people with disabilities in BC, Disability Alliance BC was selected by the Ministry of Social Development and Poverty Reduction (MSDPR) to distribute funding to community based “Accessibility Projects” beginning in 2018. Since then, over 70 projects have been funded.

This year the grants have reopened again with a total of $450,000 available. BC-based not-for-profit organizations may apply for up to $40,000 for community engagement projects that will support lasting change for people in BC living with disability.

Please read the full announcement and download the application documents here: https://disabilityalliancebc.org/program/accessibility-projects/<https://disabilityalliancebc.org/program/accessibility-projects/>
The announcement will also be available in ASL as embedded videos on the webpage above very soon, please stay tuned.

We would be grateful if you could spread the word by sharing with your networks. Please do reach out to us if you have any questions.

Kind regards,

Helaine
