The Members with Disabilities Action
Committee (MDAC) is made up of members of the Public Service Alliance
of Canada who have disabilities. MDAC welcomes members with disabilities,
whether physical, sensory or mental, either permanent or temporary
in duration.
The purpose of the Committee
is to ensure that Alliance members with disabilities are given
the opportunity to participate fully in their union and in their
workplace. MDAC serves as a forum where members can share information
and address issues of concern. The
NCR MDAC meets the first Thursday of every month at 15 Holland
Avenue. Please check the events
calendar for more information.
MDAC has been instrumental in
raising awareness in the Alliance on a number of disability
issues. PSAC now has two policy papers in this area: "Alternate
Media" and "Employment Equity for Members with Disabilities".
The Alliance Board of Directors also passed in 1997 the "PSAC
National Action Plan on Disability Issues".

the Committee, contact Pat McGrath, Chairperson at
