IMPACT PROGRAM

ABOUT

The Impact Program branched out from our Access Program in the spring of 2016. This program is driven by the people who attend it. Some common interests found in this program are: employment, volunteerism, establishing friendships, building new skills, and getting active in the community. This site features: "the lab" & resource centre, a full size kitchen, computer & iPad stations, gaming consoles, flat screens, and a theatre stage.

GOAL

"Creating CommUNITY"

The Impact Program has a goal to increase community connections and engagements. We continue to work on building social supports, friendships, and new skills, and encouraging individuals to be active members of the community. We are always on the lookout for new opportunities and partnerships to help individuals get connected to their unique interests.

VOICES

Self-Advocacy Group

Advocacy: to change "what is" to "what should be"

VOICES is a self–advocacy group in partnership with South Region Self Advocacy Network (SRSAN). The group consists of 14+ active members, all who utilize services through Quest. This group is on a mission to raise awareness in the Lethbridge community that individuals with disabilities have a voice!“Voices” takes their mission and duties seriously, but they have fun while doing it.

Voices is always looking for new members. If you are interested in learning about advocacy, rights, gaining independence and using your voice, join us. Sign up sheets are posted at all programs and meetings will take place in the Access Classroom. For more information, inquire with AIR management.
