CDSS and the national network of disability organizations are urging our federal political parties to prioritize the rights, dignity, and inclusion of the millions of Canadians who live with disabilities in their platforms and policies.
But we cannot do it without you.

Recreational activities are an excellent way to explore our passions, but there is more to it than that. It’s what we do after work and school that brings us joy, connects us, encourages our creativity, and builds our confidence.
In this Recreation Issue of 3.21 Magazine, self-advocates share how they became involved in a variety of recreational activities from Taekwondo to starting a book club, and the unforeseen benefits they experienced.
You’ll also hear from organizations that are actively running inclusive recreation programs in Canada and what makes them successful.
The CDSS Education Hub is filled with shareable, printable resources and quick guides that include practical tips and suggestions to help support students as they learn together in the school community.
