Indigenous Disability Awareness Month | November

At Technology for Living, we respectfully acknowledge November as Indigenous Disability Awareness Month, a time to recognize and honour Indigenous Peoples living with disabilities, their families, and their communities. This month reminds us of the importance of inclusion, accessibility, and culturally safe support for all community members.

We acknowledge the unique barriers Indigenous persons with disabilities may experience, and we remain committed to ongoing learning, listening, and meaningful participation in reconciliation. We value the guidance of Indigenous communities and continue to work toward relationships grounded in respect, collaboration, and shared responsibility in advancing equitable access to services.

We had a truly uplifting experience at an Accessible Nature Well-being Program (ANWP) held at Power to Be's Prospect Lake site near Victoria in September!

People, including those using a variety of mobility devices, joined us along with their care assistants to focus on community building, and self-care through mindful nature connection. After enjoying lunch together, we set out on a guided nature walk led by EcoWisdom-certified Nature Therapy Guides, Penny Goldberg, Kim Dunlop and Tammy van der Kamp.

Calm meditations along the trail helped everyone connect more deeply with the natural world – an important practice for people living with disabilities, chronic illnesses or the stresses of daily life. The perfect weather, complete with a light refreshing shower, created a uniquely beautiful, almost Mystic atmosphere.

Thank you to everyone who made this day special!

In 1998, the Community and Residents Mentors Association (CARMA) was founded by former George Pearson Centre residents Taz Perbhai and the late Mary Margaret Lambert. After successfully transitioning to community living themselves, they returned to help their friends still living in institutional care.

CARMA is a peer mentorship program that helps people with disabilities either transition to independent community living or reclaim their voices and power within care facilities.

Despite facing resistance, they built bridges with staff and families, resurrected the Resident Council, and proved that people with lived experience could mentor and advocate for their peers. Though they weren't seniors when they founded CARMA, they are now—and their work continues today at Oak Care Centre, Dogwood Care Centre, and Cambie Gardens as part of Technology for Living.
