SUMMARY:National AccessAbility Week
DESCRIPTION:Let’s change the way we think\, talk and act about accessibility and inclusion!\nNational AccessAbility Week (NAAW) takes place every year starting on the last Sunday in May. It is a time when accessibility and inclusion is promoted across communities and workplaces and a time to celebrate the contributions of Canadians with disabilities. It is also an opportunity to recognize the efforts of Canadians who are actively removing barriers and ensuring persons with disabilities have an equal chance to participate in all aspects of Canadian society. \nThe increased social and economic inclusion of persons with disabilities has positive economic and social benefits\, for persons with disabilities\, for business\, the economy\, and society in general. \nWhen persons with disabilities can access meaningful employment\, resources and services\, Canada’s economy grows. Businesses have the chance to welcome more customers\, service satisfaction improves and workplaces reflect Canada’s diversity. \nBy bringing Canadians together to recognize the valuable contributions of persons with disabilities\, we are strengthening the collaborative effort needed to create a country that is fully accessible and inclusive.

SUMMARY:Nova Scotia National AccessAbility Week Makers Making Change Info Session
DESCRIPTION:Could you\, or someone you know\, benefit from an adaptive device to compensate for a disability? Perhaps assistance with turning keys\, adapting gaming controllers\, or carrying items on a wheelchair? Do you have an interest in helping others by making adaptive devices through the use of electronics or 3D Printing? \nIf so\, then join us for an information session with Makers Making Change\, a project from Neil Squire\, that connects people who could benefit from assistive devices with volunteer makers. Makers Making Change (MMC) is an innovative community-based initiative that connects makers to people with disabilities to create affordable open source assistive technologies. Makers Making Change utilizes emerging technology such as Arduino microcontrollers\, 3D printing and laser cutting. The project integrates the culture and communities that surround the open source movement\, the maker movement and the crowdsourcing movement.
