The ACT Chief Minister’s Inclusion Awards acknowledge the outstanding achievements of business, organisations and individuals who have demonstrated a clear commitment to include people with a disability in their organisation, business and/or community.
One in six people in the ACT identify as having a disability. This represents a significant market in commercial terms. This initiative is about building healthy communities as well as about good economic sense.
The Canberra community has recognised the importance of these Awards by nominating organisations and individuals who are showing leadership in their practices with regard to including people with a disability.
Sometimes the smallest changes can make a big difference in supporting an inclusive environment for people with disabilities.
Winners will be announced at a gala awards presentation this Thursday, the 22nd of October.
