Sarah on being a good citizen

Citizen Speak
Written By

How do you think you could use your abilities to better the community or demonstrate being a good citizen?

"Volunteer! and recycle a lot! I overcame my disabilities to get a job, they always include me in parades & everything, I'm the only girl"

What's something  you'd like to say to people with disabilities?

"Do your best! There's always hope!"

This Citizen Speak is brought to you by one of our community allies from the University of Alberta. Over the course of fall 2013, a University of Alberta Community Service-Learning student (Alexandra Brooker), set out to explore and document what people in Edmonton think being an engaged citizen means and how we can get better at it.
