from seeing beyond our disabilities so that we are included in
all aspects of life.
We will take charge of the social, political, and economic
decisions that affect our lives.
We must be accountable for our actions.
We must have choice in the services and supports we require.
We acknowledge and accept the dignity of risk.

All buildings and facilities must be accessible.
Transportation, information, and communication services must
meet our diverse needs.
Principle of Equity
We will be vigilant to ensure that our rights and freedoms
are upheld.
We claim our right to be equal while maintaining our individuality.
