The Social Planning and Research Council of BC (SPARC BC) has designated Saturday, June 6, as Access Awareness Day. The day is celebrated annually on the first Saturday in June. Access Awareness Day is a campaign to raise awareness about disability, accessibility, and inclusion.
Access Awareness Day is ultimately about more than just one day a year. It's a call to respond creatively and purposefully to build a society where barriers to inclusion are removed. At the Town of Comox, an Accessibility Assessment and Action Plan was adopted in 2025. The plan aligns with the requirements of the Accessible BC Act. The plan is a guiding document that outlines the Town's accessibility commitment.
