We all have needs, but sometimes we need to band with others to make those needs known.
My guest today is Shelley Petit, the Chair of the New Brunswick Coalition of Persons With Disabilities (NBCPD), an advocacy organization looking to provide a voice to represent those with disabilities. Their goal is “to achieve a New Brunswick where people with disabilities would all have access to an adequate standard of living, have access to suitable supports to be able to fully and equally participate in society”.
Shelley joins me to talk about the origins of the organization, some of the challenges and opportunities facing NBCPD, and some immediate concerns and awareness that they are trying to raise.
