LETS will be doing our Breaking Barriers workshop at AdvoCon in October.
We will also have a low sensory space for the 2 days that are in person at the SFU Surrey campus.
“AdvoCon is an annual education advocacy conference organized by the BCEdAccess Society, a grassroots, BC nonprofit society and Canadian charitable organization, founded in 2014.
We are parents and guardians of students with disabilities and diverse abilities from all over the province. Our focus is action for equitable access to education, and we are led by the population we serve – disabled people, BIPOC, 2SLGBTQ+, and other people in protected classes under human rights.
This conference is for parents/guardians, self advocates, educators, administrators and all allies/accomplices in the pursuit of inclusion. Join us for workshops, panels, and presentations.
Active listeners are present online to provide support during the sessions, and we’ll try to find volunteers to provide similar available support in person.”
