THE AFRICAN CANADIAN DISABILITY COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION (INC)

Introduction Letter

On behalf of the African Canadian Disability Community Association (ACDCA), I am pleased to let you know about our organization and where we are located.

ACDCA is a community-based organization whose purpose is

(a) to identify solutions and opportunities that enable persons with disabilities to participate fully in Canadian life;

(b) to provide education on the role of cultural diversity in developing opportunities for persons with disabilities, particularly persons with disabilities from ethno-racial backgrounds; and

(c) to enhance the skills of persons with disabilities through training programs such as health education, computer literacy and job networking.

As part of ACDCA’s objectives, we have started working on a project entitled: “Towards a Comprehensive Approach to Social Cohesion: Exploring the educational, employment and health Needs of People with Disabilities in diverse communities particularly those from Ethno-Cultural background”, jointly sponsored by the Office for Disability issues (Human Resources Development Canada), the Canadian Heritage and ACDCA.

Our head-office is now fully operational and is located in Winnipeg at the following address:
1174 Pembina Highway
Winnipeg MB, R3T 2A4
