Know who else was shocked? UCP appointed Disability Advocate. UCP do not even consult the people they appoint to give advice. We're essential': Disability rights groups shocked by Alberta government funding cut | Politics | thecanadianpressnews.ca thecanadianpressnews.ca/politics/were-…

This is disturbing. When we silence people with disabilities, we push them back into institutions. BTDT. What's the real reason these groups lost their funding? All to save $424000? Nah. ca.news.yahoo.com/were-essential…

We are extremely disappointed to hear about the cut to funding for the self-advocacy groups across AB. It’s vital that people with intellectual disabilities and their allies have the capacity to raise their voices to speak to the societal issues that impact their lives daily. 1/2

🧵UCP gave 90 days notice they’re cutting 3 tiny disability programs in Alberta’s 3 largest cities. These programs help 100s of people with intellectual disabilities learn to be more independent, navigate life, jobs. UCP is harming 100s for $420k. Incompetence and cruelty.

it seems shortsighted to cut this advocacy funding. It seems they actually help services improve Jason Nixon Danielle Smith and prevent people from getting hurt. Is $424000 worth it? #abpoli #ableg facebook.com/share/r/1Dc1zX…

What would you do? At the Coalition for Justice and Human Rights we support a lot of vulnerable people. Many times, over issues that are not with the majority opinion. I am helping a young woman who the police alleged is the victim of a horrific domestic assault. She has asked me to attend and support
