In this first week of Advent, we celebrate the hope that Jesus’s birth, and life, brings us. The God of Hope’s incarnation means we can overflow with hope, even in the middle of a cold winter.

This #WorldChildrensDay, let's remember that the rights of children must be upheld every day. We especially see how human rights, like education and participation in cultural life, are too often ignored for kids with disabilities. We can do better. #ForEveryChild, every right!

On November 11th, we remember those who have lost their lives in war. We reflect on the sacrifices of these lives and the cost of war felt by each family member and friend who knew them.

Indigenous peoples of Canada experience a disability rate significantly higher than that of the general population. #IndigenousDisabilityAwarenessMonth brings awareness to these barriers, but also celebrates the contributions the community has made. #IDAM
