Habitat Seeks a Family for New Fully Accessible Home
Sunshine Coast
Habitat for Humanity Sunshine Coast is proud to announce that it will complete its new fourplex at the Village in Wilson Creek before the end of the year. One of the four units has been designed and built to be fully wheelchair accessible. This could not be more timely given that Canada recently appointed its fi rst Chief Accessibility Offi cer, Stephanie Cadieux.
The Chief Accessibility Offi cer (CAO) is a legislated position under the Accessibility Canada Act. As CAO, Stephanie serves as a special advisor to the federal Minister of Employment, Workforce Development and Disability Inclusion, Carla Qualtrough
Each of the four units measures 850 square feet, a much different design from the 6 three bedroom duplexes currently at The Village. Three families have applied and been accepted and are now readying to move in.
As of the date of writing, Habitat has not yet found a family to occupy the designated accessible home. If you know of someone who qualifi es and might be interested in applying to occupy the home, please direct them to the Habitat website for further details regarding the application process.
Canada’s fi rst Chief Accessibility Offi cer, Stephanie Cadieux,(seen here with Habitat’s John Leech) expressed appreciation to Habitat for Humanity Sunshine Coast for including a fully accessible home in the new fourplex.
