Queen's Accessibility Plan
Like all universities and colleges in Ontario, Queen's has obligations under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act to proactively identify barriers to people with disabilities, to develop a concrete action plan for removing those barriers, and to report on an annual basis to the Ministry of Citizenship and Immigration on the status of this action plan. Queen's is required to carry out these activities in a transparent fashion, ensuring information about its barrier identification and removal process is made available publicly as well as ensuring for opportunities of input and consultation with people with disabilities.
Queen's Accessibility Plan reaffirms the Queen's commitment to achieving and respecting greater diversity among its community members, recognizes the valuable contribution that diverse life experiences, insight, and inspiration make to the life and work of the University, and reaffirms the important role that people with disabilities play in achieving this vision.
