As part of the process of updating the Municipal Action Plan for Persons with Disabilities - Gaspé , work sessions will be held at City Hall from November 13 to 16, 2023 under 6 Axes of Intervention. You are invited to participate.
Please confirm your attendance to Simon-Philippe Lalonde, recreation and sports coordinator - Ville de Gaspé by e-mail at simon-p.lalonde@ville.gaspe.qc.ca.
Please note that these meetings do not commit you to joining a committee. They are simply intended as a way of taking the pulse and listening, to ensure that you have all the information you need to adopt a concrete action plan that's in tune with your environment.
The current action plan, adopted more than 10 years ago, has been updated annually, internally, by the municipal team, which now wishes to surround itself with partners who are willing to put in a little time in order to target the community's priorities, and validate that future actions (5-year plan) are coherent, and truly meet the needs of citizens living with a disability within the Ville de Gaspé community.
