Special Needs & Moving On projects

Click to enlarge ...

The Special Needs and Moving On Projects provide resources and support for workers at the post office whose children have disabilities. The projects are available to members of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers and the Union of Postal Communications Employees (Public Service Alliance of Canada). The Special Needs Project is geared to families with young children; the Moving On Project is for adult sons and daughters with special needs. Life is more demanding when you work and have a child with special needs.

Learn more about our Special Needs and Moving On projects.

Ability Online is an extraordinary and absolutely free Internet community.

They make friends, get tips from mentors, and freely participate in an atmosphere of collaboration, companionship and support.

Thank you for your ongoing advocacy efforts,
Jody Dallaire
