Voice of Albertans with Disabilities, (VAD) Is inviting you to participate in the 2024 IDPD Community Resource Fair on Saturday, November 30, 2024!

What is the purpose of International Day of Persons with Disabilities?

Celebrated on December 3rd around the world, IDPD mobilizes support for critical issues relating to the inclusion of persons with disabilities, promotes awareness-raising about disability issues and draws attention to the benefits of an inclusive and accessible society for all.

VAD focuses on full participation, equity and accessibility for everyone, and this year to celebrate IDPD, we are hosting a resource fair, and we want you to participate and invite your friends.

Participants can be anyone that would like to attend from the community. Attendance is free for patrons and throughout the day we will give away door prizes supplied by the exhibitors.

We ask that you also forward this invitation to all your resource supports so that we have a large group of community resources for youth/families, adults and seniors.  Our focus is disabilities but as that demographic is in each part of society, we believe this is an opportunity to gather all aspects of the journey through navigation systems that are a lifelong process and celebrate the International Day of Persons with Disabilities.
