Nickel Belt MPP Marc Serré is encouraging young people to apply for funding under the Youth Innovation component of the Enabling Accessibility Fund. The program offered by Employment and Social Development Canada is seeking Youth Accessibility Leaders.
Young people between the ages of 15 and 30 are encouraged to apply by Oct. 10.
Youth Accessibility Leaders promote the program and encourage organizations to apply for its funding by addressing accessibility barriers in public spaces or workplaces within their community.
Through this work, they will volunteer time to:
- Create greater awareness about accessibility needs
- Encourage organizations to apply for EAF funding to address existing accessibility barriers, and
- Build a more inclusive and accessible Canada.
