Members
of the Disability Action Hall wish to congratulate you as a Member of the Legislative Assembly on your recent appointment as an MLA for the people of Alberta. We would like to take this opportunity to extend an open invitation
to meet with us and talk about issues and solutions affecting persons with
disabilities in Alberta, some of which include:
PDD Review
Alberta
government should continue the review of Persons with Developmental
Disabilities (PDD) Services to ensure Albertans are able to access services and
supports they may need.
Affordable Transit Fares
The
Alberta government should renew its commitment to fund the low-income transit
pass in both Edmonton & Calgary and continue the rural public transit pilot
projects to ensure Albertans can get around our province
Continue to improve income
support programs
We
are very thankful the Alberta legislative assembly unanimously approved
indexing AISH and Alberta Works every year to reflect the current cost of
living.
Create an Accessible Act
for the Province
By
2035, 1 in 5 Albertans will have a disability. Albertans need universal
standards to help people access the community, create accessible buildings,
jobs and services
We
look forward to you contacting us and talk more about the Alberta government
priorities in the near future and ways we can work together.
