Today we raised the flag at Burlington City Hall to recognize International Day of Persons with Disabilities. On this day we celebrate the achievements and contributions of persons with disabilities and raise awareness of the barriers yet to be overcome. This is also an opportunity for the City of Burlington to make a renewed commitment to the fundamental principle that people living with a disability are entitled to the same rights as everyone else, and that removing barriers to inclusion are a priority. When barriers are removed, people with disabilities are empowered to participate fully in the political, social, economic and cultural life which benefits the entire community. We extend a special thank you to the members of the Burlington Accessibility Advisory Committee for their participation in today’s event.
