AODA Multi-Year Accessibility Plan

Statement of Commitment

Knowledgehook is committed to ensuring equal access and participation for people with disabilities and treating all people in a way that allows them to maintain their dignity and independence. We believe in integration and equal opportunity. We are committed to meeting the needs of people with disabilities in a timely manner, and will do so by preventing and removing barriers to accessibility and meeting accessibility requirements under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA).

We are committed to developing, implementing and maintaining policies that govern how the organization achieves or will achieve accessibility. Knowledgehook has implemented policies to meet these regulations. Any new requirements and feedback provided to us will be reviewed and updated. To facilitate this commitment, Knowledgehook will review our multi-year accessibility plan at least once every five years to identify progress made in addressing barriers and update the Knowledgehook website as such.
