Accessibility

In keeping with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005, KFL&A Public Health is committed to providing programs and services that are accessible to all and shall make reasonable efforts to ensure that:
  • Programs and services are provided in a manner that respects the dignity and independence of persons with disabilities.
  • The provision of programs and services to persons with disabilities and others shall be integrated unless an alternate measure is necessary, whether temporarily or on a permanent basis, to enable a person with a disability to obtain, use or benefit from programs and services.
  • Persons with a disability shall be given an opportunity equal to that given to others to obtain, use and benefit from programs and services.
Under KFL&A Public Health's accessibility policy, persons with disabilities may:
  • be accompanied by a guide dog or other service animal and use and keep the animal with them unless the animal is otherwise excluded by law,
  • be accompanied by a support person,
  • use their own assistive devices for the purpose of obtaining, using, and benefiting from KFL&A Public Health's programs and services, and
  • request a copy of our policy and any related materials in an alternate format.
