Accessibility Plan

The City of Terrace’s Accessibility Plan is a result of legislation (law) that was introduced in 2021, called the Accessible British Columbia Act. This law helps to identify, remove, and prevent barriers that make it difficult for people living with disabilities in our province. The goal of this new law is to make British Columbia more accessible for everyone.
Our Joint Accessibility Advisory Committee (JAAC) chose to focus on “Information and Communications” as our first area of focus. This standard looks at the barriers that people face when they interact with others, signage, printed materials, or technology like websites and documents.
