There is good information out there on how to start an accessibility advisory committee. You don’t have to reinvent the wheel. All municipalities have been sent a book by the government ministry but it is not always shared with AAC members. It should be. We’ll have links here enabling you to contact people for information and booklets. And, if any members have basic information for beginners they’d care to share please send to info@accessibilitynews.ca.
