Welcome to the Nova Scotia League for Equal Opportunities

(The League, NSLEO)

 

Ultimately, the League is a catalyst in building social, community, and political leadership of people with disabilities within Nova Scotia. We achieve this at a national level through our national affiliate, the Council of Canadians with Disabilities (CCD) and through provincial affiliates around the province and across the country.

 

NSLEO envisions a future where the abilities of people with disabilities in Nova Scotia (NS) are fully recognized and developed living as equals in society. 

​

The League takes a leading role and is a major contributor to many important and valuable charitable community efforts. We are a cross-disability voice of Nova Scotians with disabilities. Our ongoing activities include:

​

• Provincial Access Awareness;

• Disability Student Scholarships;

• Provincial Disability Partnership;

• Poverty Reduction Strategy;

• Women with Disabilities;

• Wheelchairs for children & adults;

• Disability Information Sharing Sessions;

• Disabled and Seniors Community-based Transit;

• Public and Member Disability Education;

• Preparing Provincial Caucus Research Papers;

• Disability Emergency Preparedness;

• United Nations Disability Treaty Education; and

• Provincial Disability Tourism Improvements.

 

The League also provides information and referral services to all Nova Scotians regarding disability issues as well as available programs and services.
