Mandate: "As a team we are strong advocates for social health and the connection of people to their communities. We strive to remove barriers that exist to participation that prohibit autonomy and freedom to choose how we interact with our communities. We believe ’nothing about us, without us’ means those with disabilities, those who are vulnerable or marginalized are the voice to everything we develop and deliver in our services and programs."
