Accessibility Plan Survey

All government agencies must develop an Accessibility Plan to address accessibility barriers in policies, practices and procedures; the Town of Neepawa’s plan is to be in place by the end of the year.

Under the authority of the Accessibility for Manitobans Act, the Town of Neepawa strives to identify, remove and prevent barriers to accessibility which will enhance service standards for all citizens and visitors.

A barrier to accessibility is anything that limits or prevents a person from being able to receive information, services and goods, and access space or activities. 

We tend to be more aware of disabilities with visual cues (wheelchair, service animal, etc.)  Disabilities can be invisible – mental illness, developmental or learning disabilities, chemical or food sensitivities, disabilities caused by illnesses, etc.
 
We are asking for your input and assistance in ensuring we meet the needs of all our citizens and visitors as we develop our plan, and request that you take a few minutes to answer this short survey.  Thank you!
