SUMMARY:International Day of Persons with Disabilities
DESCRIPTION:International Day of Persons with Disabilities is on December 3rd.  Proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in 1992\, the International Day of Persons with Disabilities (IDPD) has been annually observed on December 3 around the world. Disabled adults must also be acknowledged for their strengths\, and not just for their vulnerabilities. \nAn estimated 14% of the Canadian population lives with some form of disability. Disabilities become increasingly common with age\, ranging from a low of 6.3% of those between the ages of 15 and 29 to a high of 45.7% among those aged 65 and over.  Adults with disabilities may be vulnerable to abuse and neglect. Many disabled adults are lonely and isolated. \nPast themes associated with the International Day of Persons with Disabilities include: \n\nDignity and Justice for all of us\nDecent Work for Persons with Disabilities\nE-Accessibility\nThe Future is Accessible\nEmpowering Persons with Disabilities and Ensuring Inclusiveness and Equality\n\nWhile Government support plays an important role\, community members who care and reach out with assistance can make a big difference in the lives of persons living with disabilities.

SUMMARY:Spotlight on Ageism Presentation
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to attend BC CRN’s newest presentation offering. Ageism is highly prevalent and is the most socially accepted and tolerated form of discrimination in Canada. Like sexism or racism\, ageism is discrimination – based on someone’s age. Ageism can occur at any point in our lifespan – regardless of how old we are – and may lead to others making judgements about our background\, capability\, mental or physical status\, based only on their impression of our age. \nCome join us – everyone is welcome! Register now or email us for more information.
