Persons with disabilities have had to struggle very hard to develop awareness and recognition of all the great things that we are capable of. Stigma still impedes much of what we are capable of doing. Taking away this wonderful coalition will just add to it. Government must support agencies and services that provide engaging and inclusive programs that help empower those who otherwise may be able to due to all the barriers we face. If government doesn't see us as worthy of financial and promotional support then who will? Please change your focus and do all you can to be a part of our solution not another barrier to it. Thank you very much for having a second sober thought.

Please reverse your decision to cut funding to the COD-NL. Persons with disabilities need all the help they can get, they didn't ask for the disability.
