We are the ones who know what it’s like to experience violence, who know what the barriers are. Speak to us, says @DAWNRAFHCanada research lead for Ontario #MoreThanAFootnoteWWD
When women with disabilities/Deaf women are experiencing violence, they face barriers at every step. They may not be educated on their rights, online information may not be accessible, or there may be physical barriers to access service providers. #16days #MoreThanAFootnoteWWD
We call on federal decision makers to use an inclusive and intersectional approach in the development and implementation of the new Federal Strategy on #GenderBasedViolence and in new #FederalAccessibilityLegislation through a whole of Government approach. No more GB+ for us!
This Sunday, on International Day of Persons with Disabilities, we celebrate the unique abilities of EVERY person! And we call on all individuals and institutions in Canada to help remove barriers to equal participation for persons with disabilities. #AccessibleCanada #IDPWD
