Disabled Community Connection Network

 

We wish to inform you about our next Disabled Community Connection Network (DCCN) session.

Text on flyer:
DCCN is a monthly communication and information group for people of all ages (16+) with any disability. This group is supported by the North Shore Disability Resource Centre and PeerNet BC.

Our next group is happening on August 17th at 4:00PM – 6:00PM at PeerNet BC, #408-602 West Hastings, Vancouver. We would be very appreciative if you could promote this session in your newsletters and on your social media-feeds.

The session will focus on “Overcoming Barriers to Employment and Education as a Disabled Person.” Come share your lived experiences through lively, peer facilitated discussion. This group is facilitated by and for people with disabilities.

In the future, DCCN will be creating community projects that shine light on the disabled experience based on group discussions.

Our next session will feature Karen Lai an accessibility and inclusion consultant for several different organizations municipalities, and businesses. She ensures that people with disabilities are involved in their community. She will be speaking on her own personal experiences with employment and educational barriers as a proud disabled woman.

ASL Interpretation and food is provided! The space is also wheelchair accessible. Please let us know of any accommodations and dietary needs you require.

Please email or call 604-904-4088 to register.

Thank you for your time,

Lauren, DCCN Facilitator
