Alberta Council of Disability Services

Advocating for the Sector

ACDS advocates strongly on issues that affect the Community Disability Services (CDS) sector. We are viewed by the Government of Alberta and the CDS sector as a credible and trusted voice. We influence public policy by supporting our members to have a collective voice, conducting sector-specific research, and offering regular updates on policy and legislative changes impacting the sector. Read this one-pager for an overview of some of our key accomplishments in recent years.
