Since 1945, Spinal Cord Injury Canada has been a part of substantial change that has helped individuals with spinal cord injury and other disabilities from coast to coast. Our mission is to empower persons with spinal cord injuries and other physical disabilities to achieve Independence and full Community Participation. SCI Alberta supports its clients through it’s services in client support and service coordination, community development and systemic change, peer program, information services, and active living.
SCI Alberta’s service delivery is funded through a combination of government grants and support from donors like you. By supporting SCI-AB, you become an agent of change as we work together to remove barriers and make full community participation possible for Albertans with spinal cord injuries.
To empower persons with spinal cord injuries and other physical disabilities to achieve Independence and full Community Participation.
We acknowledge that what we call Alberta is the traditional and ancestral territory of many peoples, presently subject to Treaties 6, 7, and 8. Namely: the Blackfoot Confederacy – Kainai, Piikani, and Siksika – the Cree, Dene, Saulteaux, Nakota Sioux, Stoney Nakoda, and the Tsuut’ina Nation and the Métis People of Alberta. This includes the Métis Settlements and the Six Regions of the Métis Nation of Alberta within the historical Northwest Metis Homeland. We acknowledge the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations, and the harm and suffering they have endured. We are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are still with us today and those who have gone before us. We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory we reside, and wish to take actions towards authentic allyship.
