About CDAC

CDAC, formerly Augmentative Communication Community Partnerships Canada (ACCPC) was founded in September 2000 and incorporated as a federal non-profit organization in August 2001. It was established to complement existing clinical, educational and support services by addressing the communication barriers and accessibility accommodations required by people who have communication disabilities. Many of these barriers are the result of people not knowing how to interact with people who have communication disabilities.

CDAC promotes improved quality of life for individuals who have communication disabilities and who may use augmentative and alternative communication by increasing social awareness and developing socially innovative projects to enhance community participation for people who have communication disabilities.
