July is Disability Pride Month—a time to honour the strength, self-advocacy, and contributions of people with disabilities.
I had the privilege of joining Independent Living Waterloo Region for their Annual Summer Picnic—a joyful gathering that reflects the heart of their work: building community, fostering independence, and celebrating the right to live with dignity and choice.
ILWR continues to be a leader in supporting adults with physical disabilities across our region. Their work matters—this month and every month.
