The BCCPD was founded with the belief that people with disabilities are entitled to equal opportunities in all aspects of life. This cross-disability organization uses public education and advocacy projects to work toward the elimination of barriers faced by people with disabilities.

The BCCPD’s Advocacy Access Program is a service to aid people with disabilities in applying for disability benefits, finding community resources, learning their rights and how to advocate for them, etc. For more information on the organization and its activities contact:
