Essex County 8th Annual Accessibility Workshop Agenda OPENING DOORS AND MINDS

This year’s workshop will once again provide attendees with information on ways in which we can open up our community to people with disabilities. Topics such as planning for accessible communities and making our heritage accessible to everyone will be the focus of some of the concurrent workshops. Improve your understanding of some of the invisible disabilities such as dementia, mental health illnesses and non-verbal learning disabilities. Learn how technology can assist young adults as they transition into post-secondary education. Take the opportunity to visit the many booths at the Information Fair, all providing valuable information on resources and tools available to improve accessibility. Network and share best practices of accessibility initiatives within your community.
