Intelligent Futures and Level Playing Field teamed up to develop an accessibility plan for the Municipality of Kings and the Villages. Through a series of investigations, they identified the assets, barriers, and opportunities for improvement for the current and future state of accessibility. The plan comprises seven focus areas, including built environment, transportation, and recreation, all working towards a common vision of an inclusive and accessible community for all. The plan identifies 17 propelling actions for the next three years that build momentum towards full accessibility by 2030. The Joint Accessibility Advisory Committee, comprising half of people with disabilities or those working with them, reviewed and accepted the draft plan in the spring of 2022.
In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge that we are on the traditional territories of the people of the Treaty 7 region, which includes the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprised of the Siksika, Piikani, and Kainai First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations). Calgary is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta (Districts 5 and 6).
