AdvoCon

As mentioned in the Low Sensory Spaces section of this newsletter, AdvoCon is an annual education advocacy conference organized by the BCEdAccess Society, a grassroots, BC non-profit society and Canadian charitable organization. The organization’s focus is action for equitable access to education, and they are led by the population they serve – disabled people, BIPOC, 2SLGBTQ+, and other people in protected classes under human rights. In addition to the Low Sensory Space that LET’S offered at AdvoCon, we also hosted a Disability Awareness workshop that was attended by many educators and self-advocates.
