Huron County is now accepting nominations for the annual Accessibility Awards.
The county says the Huron County Accessibility Advisory Committee (HCAAC) Awards "recognize and celebrate individuals and organizations that demonstrate a commitment to accessibility and inclusivity in Huron County. These awards honour those who actively work to remove barriers, enhance accessibility, and foster a more inclusive community."
There are two awards to submit nominations for. The first is the Sandra Thompson Memorial Accessibility Champion Award, which was created in 2022 to honour Sandra, who was a champion for accessibility in Huron County, and to also celebrate the International Day of Persons with Disabilities.
The other award is the Award of Merit for Barrier-Free Access. This award recognizes outstanding contributions to creating spaces and experiences that remove barriers and foster a more inclusive community.
The deadline for submissions is 11:59 p.m. on October 26.
