SARC encourages Saskatchewan citizens to be part of community inclusion for people experiencing intellectual and developmental disabilities. Community inclusion is as simple as starting with hello.

BUT, community inclusion is also critically dependent on a support system of community-based organizations (CBOs) operating behind the scenes – that’s what the SARC Membership is all about.

CBOs operating in the Disability Service sector need prioritization by the Government of Saskatchewan. Thousands of people experiencing intellectual and developmental disabilities across the province are depending on it so that they can be supported to lead safe, healthy, and fulfilling lives in their community.

Supports include but are not limited to personal care, medical care, behavioural support, independence, relationships and decision-making. These are not ‘nice to have’ services – they are essential for people experiencing disabilities and their families. Watch this video to learn more!

SARC, SARC Members, their board members, employees, and people experiencing disabilities and their families are calling on the Government of Saskatchewan to institute policies and funding reforms that truly support inclusion and person-centred services in the Disability Service sector.
