ACCESSIBLE DRIVER APPRECIATION WEEK 2019
|
In 2017, Calgary Ability Network (CAN) and Voices of Albertans with Disabilities (VAD) began an annual accessible driver appreciation event to acknowledge those who help people with disabilities get where they need to go. This annual event now happens the second week of every November. Please let the people who drive and schedule accessible transportation know they are appreciated. It is through their daily work that many people get to live, work and play in our communities. |
