Introduction to AAD

Celebrated annually on the first Saturday in June, Access Awareness Day is a comprehensive campaign to raise awareness about disability, accessibility, and social inclusion.

Access Awareness Day has been made possible because of dedicated and inspired individuals who understand the importance of social inclusion; the recognition that both the right and the opportunity to participate in all aspects of human life enable individuals and communities to celebrate their diversity and recognize their responsibilities.

Access Awareness Day is ultimately about more than just one day a year - it is a call to respond creatively and purposefully to build a society where barriers to inclusion are removed, and the independence, self-esteem, dignity, and security of all citizens is ensured.
