Thank you to the Provincial Government for recognizing us and the Developing Accessibility Gala — we are so grateful for the support as we work to bring more awareness to neuropathy and those living with it and how leaders in design, development, policy, and community advocacy can create a better quality of life for those who need accessibility in the spaces we live, gather, work, and play in.

Thank you to Dr. Chika Daniels for presenting us with this message from the Premier!

Thank you so much to Dr. Chika Daniels for speaking on behalf of the Office of the Premier of Alberta.

Dr. Daniels’ doctoral specialization in (Social) Housing & Policy, along with her role as part of the Executive Council for the Premier of Alberta, brought a unique intersection of policy and impact — Dr. Daniels shared on how accessibility is often reduced to larger doorways, hallways, and ramps, but accessibility is deeper than those metrics; it’s really about dignity.

Dr. Daniels spoke on the power of bringing together perspectives from different sectors like designers, developers, policy makers, and community advocates — the people who shape the environment where we live, gather, work, and play — because this is where deeply impactful solutions are found; when sectors work together to bring as much impact as possible to the people who need it most.

In addition to her address, Dr. Daniels presented us with a message from the Premier, recognizing the impact and importance of raising awareness around accessibility in design, development, funding, and policy in Calgary’s built spaces and bringing more attention to those living with Neuopathy.

Thank you to Dr. Chika Daniels for presenting this address to our organization and being an important part of the first annual Developing Accessibility Gala.
