Ontarians with Disabilities Act (ODA) Committee |
|
In 2001 the Ontarian with Disabilities Act (ODA) came into effect - (see Terms of Reference). The purpose of this act is to achieve accessibility for Ontarians with disabilities. Since the inception of the Act, Educational institutions along with other sectors have been required to develop a committee and provide an annual report to the Ministry. This report identifies the key areas that have been identified as presenting barriers to persons with disabilities and what plan has or is being implemented to remove such barriers in promoting access. As one of the most diverse colleges in Canada, George Brown College is committed to promoting an equitable environment for students and employees and opportunities for members of the community to have access to and participate in all aspects of college life. The College established it's ODA committee in 2004 and has continued ongoing efforts in working towards an inclusive and barrier-free College. The ODA committee has posted the annual reports each year which identifies what commitments were made and what outcomes were met. The committee would like to invite students, support staff, faculty and administrators of George Brown College to send us your comments. The Chair of the ODA committee will respond to your comments.
