Yes, membership does have its privileges!  

 

Member agencies of BCACDI benefit from a collaborative advocacy approach in addressing issues and challenges impacting service delivery to children and youth with special needs. Our organization has a seat at the table of several provincial committees and organizations working at improving services for children and youth, and we regularly have government representatives present in person at our face-to-face meetings to directly address questions from membership regarding services. Further, our member agencies network, share, and learn from eachother to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of their agency operations. BCACDI member agencies also have access to continuing education opportunities, job postings and recruitment services, and a dedicated Provincial Advocate to address identified issues and priorities identified by membership.
