Inclusion BC Executive Director Karla Verschoor had the honour of presenting with Delta Housing Be Mine Society in front of City of Delta - Local Government last night. The presentation - Building Inclusive Housing: Brick by Brick: Empowering Community Together - was fully embraced by local leaders.

Council unanimously passed the motion supporting their three key asks:

➡️Remove the word “Pilot” from Inclusionary Housing in the City of Delta’s Housing Action Plan.
➡️Support the development of a DELTA Toolbox by collaborating on resources for inclusive design.
➡️Partner with Nonprofits to leverage the expertise of organizations already doing this work.

Congratulations to the entire team for your leadership and commitment to make Delta an inclusive place to live!
