I’ve been hearing the same question over and over.

What can we actually do about the cuts to disability services?

Complaining online is not a strategy. Anger without direction is not a plan.

If we are going to push back, we need to do it smart, and we need to do it TOGETHER 💚

I will be joining MLA Marie Renaud, Shadow Minister for Community and Social Services, along with Michelle Kristinson from the Alberta Ability Network for a live session focused on practical advocacy tools. Not theory. Not just talk. Real steps you can take and share.

Wednesday, March 4
6:30 PM
YouTube Live with ASL interpretation

If you care about disability rights in Alberta… whether you’re directly impacted, a family member, or an ally… this session is for you.

We are stronger, louder, and more effective when we move together.

We do not win by accident. We win by organizing.

Kyle Lobb - Autistic Journeys: Voices & Perspectives
Friday, February 27th
12 pm to 1 pm

Kyle Lobb is on a mission to make effective change and create space for Autistics.

Kyle Lobb is a 37-year-old neurodivergent individual diagnosed with Autism, Tourette’s syndrome, OCD, ADHD, and Bipolar disorder. Growing up, Kyle often felt different from others and faced challenges navigating school, friendships, employment, and neurotypical society. Despite these obstacles, he has developed strategies to manage daily life and recently moved into his first independent home with support from his community.

Fitness, housing, public speaking, and more are those spaces where you will find Kyle finding his mark.

This learning session is part of Autism Edmonton’s “Autistic Journeys: Voices and Perspectives” series, where Kyle will share his experiences and insights as a neurodivergent individual navigating life, independence, and community involvement.
