Inclusion is only the beginning.
Inclusion is only the beginning.
We're on a mission to create an inclusive community in Bermuda where individuals with support needs can actively participate in society, access opportunities, and lead fulfilling lives.
We’re going beyond mere inclusion.
We’re all about genuine belonging, where every person, regardless of their unique support needs, is celebrated and valued.
What are support needs?
Support needs encompass a wide spectrum of conditions and barriers that individuals may face, including but not limited to special needs, disabilities, and mental health conditions. This term is intentionally broad and inclusive because it recognises that each person's experience is unique, and their requirements for support can vary greatly.
Why we use the term:
We use the term "support needs" to emphasise our commitment to person-centred care and inclusivity. Unlike labels that can carry stigma or limitations, "support needs" focuses on the assistance and accommodations individuals require to thrive. It highlights the importance of recognising and addressing these needs to create a more inclusive, equitable, and empathetic society where everyone's potential is celebrated and supported.
