About the History of the Right to Love Group

The Right to Love is a group of people with disabilities and the Centre for Sexuality (formerly the Calgary Sexual Health Centre) From 2009 until 2019  we worked towards healthy sexuality and education for everyone. 

Right to Love videos are stories to help raise awareness that everyone has the right to love. 

We encourage people to seek the educational expertise of the Centre for Sexuality if people need help or research.

NETWORKING

We are part of a larger provincial group called Albertans Advocating Change Together (AACT).

We are a network of self-advocates and self-advocacy groups across Alberta. 

We find out what self-advocates are doing and share it with others so we can all be stronger. We find out what is important to self-advocates and make sure they have a provincial voice.
