DisAbled Women's Network Canada / Réseau d'action des femmes handicapées du Canada Details
Established In 1985, the DisAbled Women's Network of Canada (DAWN) is a national, feminist, cross-disability organization that has provided opportunities for self-determination and leadership development for women and girls with disabilities for 35 years.Our mission is to end the poverty, isolation, discrimination and violence experienced by Canadian women with disabilities and Deaf women. Our mission is driven by four pillars: RESEARCH: we work with community-based researchers and academic partners to shift the discussion around how research and community development can and should be done using the intersectional approach. EDUCATION: We develop curriculum tools to deepen knowledge and skill in the practice of inclusion on the part of instructors, students and service providers in a variety of settings. POLICY REFORM: We continue to challenge and engage policy-makers in the review and development of policies so that they are informed by community-defined needs. ADVOCACY: We are committed to ensuring that the voices of women with disabilities and Deaf women are represented at decision-making tables in the areas that matter to us most.DAWN Canada works towards the advancement and inclusion of women and girls with disabilities and Deaf women by creating change at a systemic level. This includes building strategic partnerships, developing curriculum and educational tools, and addressing policy change.
