What is accessibility? It simply means giving people of all abilities opportunities to participate fully in everyday life.
The Township of Tiny is committed to promoting independence, dignity, integration, and equality of opportunity for persons with disabilities. Our goal is to make the Township workplaces accessible and welcoming environments where both employees and customers are accommodated, in a timely manner, to meet their needs.
The Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act was passed in 2005. Its goal is to make Ontario accessible for people with disabilities by 2025. This Act lays the framework for the development of province-wide mandatory standards on accessibility in all areas of daily life.
