Donna’s speech to the Victoria Disability Resource Centre
On Sep 21 Donna was invited to address the AGM of the Victoria Disability Resource Centre and the focal point of her presentation was to share her experience with regard to Charter challenge to the Canadian Government.
Donna described her journey in detail commencing with why she launched her Charter challenge, the landmark victory and her fight for the kids of the future.
From Wendy Cox:
“I echo Kim’s appreciation. I was absolutely captivated hearing about the barriers you faced when advocating for (what should be) basic accessibility.
Thank you for joining us and sharing your journey, and thank you for all the work you do to remove barriers for Canadians with disabilities.” 😊
