A person trained in a way of listening using verbal and nonverbal messages and responding to that person with the goal of improving mutual understanding. Active listeners will give their full focus and attention to a person and will then confirm the messages they received by repeating them to the speaker. They may sometimes provide further resources if needed.
Support And Sustainability
The initial creation of this website was made possible by a grant from Canada Council for the Arts.
Ongoing expenses include website domain renewal, labour for content updates, and maintenance. These expenses are anticipated to be between $2000 - $3000 per year.
Arts groups and organizations are invited to contribute $100 annually towards the Accessibility Project, in the form of a Community Sponsorship. Funds collected go towards all of the Project's activities, including keeping the website up-to-date and operational. Send us a note if you're interested in contributing.
Donations from individuals or companies are gratefully accepted and welcome at any time.
* Donations are made through Eastern Front Theatre and go into a designated Accessibility Project fund. Funds will only be used for Accessibility Project activities.
