The Disabled Persons
Commission

The Nova Scotia Disabled Persons Commission (NSDPC) gives people with disabilities a way to participate in the provincial government policy-making process. The NSDPC advises policy-makers and program-developers about

  • the needs of people with disabilities
  • the issues and concerns that affect the lives of people with disabilities

Mission and Vision

The mission of the Nova Scotia Disabled Persons Commission is "to champion the social and economic inclusion of citizens with disabilities."

That means we work for:

  • recognition that people with disabilities make valuable contributions to a healthy, diverse society
  • equal opportunity and universal access to the physical environment, services and information for people with disabilities
  • inclusion of people with disabilities as active decision-makers at all levels of the government, corporate and voluntary sectors, as well as over the personal services and supports they require
