October is Community Inclusion Month!

Happy Community Inclusion Month! Every year in October Inclusion BC joins people from across the province in celebrating inclusion, diversity and the rights and contributions of people with intellectual disabilities. We’re happy you decided to celebrate with us!

“This is an opportunity to reflect on the meaning and importance of inclusion and how communities hold the key to making it happen,” says Inclusion BC’s Acting Executive Director Karla Verschoor. “We want to celebrate the gifts that people with intellectual disabilities bring to our communities and the strength that comes from valuing our diversity.”
