Advocacy at
the local, provincial and national level has been a priority of
the Association since its beginning. It is through advocacy -the
process of speaking up on someone else's behalf- that society will
become a more welcoming and accessible place.
The SACL employs
several Advocacy Workers who are experienced and trained to support
individuals with disabilities and their families to work through
issues in their local communities.
Advocacy Workers
help people deal with educational, health and social systems, with
specific questions of assistance, and in cases where families or
individuals believe their human rights or benefits as a Saskatchewan
citizen are being neglected or ignored.
Contact the
SACL for the name of an Advocacy Worker assigned to your area in
the province. Call (306) 955-3344, fax (306) 373-3070 or email:
