This past Tuesday, ASPECT presented to the Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Services via Zoom. This is a public process open to anyone in BC and informs the creation of the 2021 BC Budget.
Our presentation focuses on 3 recommendations:

On Thursday, ASPECT attended a virtual meeting with 80 other non-profit organizations throughout the province to discuss our requests and how we can collaborate to present a united front to the government. It was an interesting conversation with some good ideas shared. More info on this initiative to follow.
