Do you know about the Exclusion Tracker?
If you are a parent or guardian of a child or youth with disabilities and/or complex learning needs in Canada, this is a place to document their experiences of exclusion and ensure they are counted.

Fill out the survey each time your child or youth experiences exclusion at school or in child care.

Exclusion can take many forms - being sent home, not being included in class activities, field trips, extracurricular programs, or being denied access to child care/out-of-school care. If a child or youth feels excluded, it counts.

We wrapped up a great week on the road with a visit to Grand Falls-Windsor with CCRW 🚗 It was the perfect opportunity to connect with others working in both the mentoring and employment space. We shared collective challenges and brainstormed ways to continue strengthening our connections so that we can better support clients. What a fantastic end to our road trip!

DEAM: People need to feel safe speaking up at work.

Consider creating a Disability Employee Resource Group (ERG) where employees can connect, share experiences and help shape workplace practices.

And create a culture where employees can talk about disability and accommodations without fear of judgement or discrimination.

No one should feel pressured to disclose, but everyone should feel safe if they choose to.

What a wonderful tribute to two trailblazers of inclusive education in New Brunswick.

Gordon Porter presented special recognition to Honourable Aldéa Landry former Deputy Premier of NB and Co-Chair of the landmark Commission on Excellence in Education.

In addition we recognized the late Honourable Dr. Marilyn Trenholme Counsell former provincial Minister, Senator, and past Lieutenant Governor of NB for her outstanding contributions to inclusive education in the province.

Pictured below are Giles Trenholme Counsell, son of Marilyn, Gordon Porter, and Aldéa Landry receiving the awards of distinction.
