Background

In June 2021, the City contracted consultants John Loeppky and Traci Foster from Listen to Dis’ Community Arts. Listen to Dis’ is a Regina-based, disability-led arts organization with a strong history of cultural and recreational programming, disability audits, and consultation work around inclusion and access. John and Traci are both disabled artists themselves, and each has been personally and professionally engaged in arts, culture, sport and/or recreation for many years.

This survey follows focus groups that were held in summer 2021. A summary of the responses will be included in a report to City Council in early 2022 and will influence our next steps in making recreation and leisure more accessible for people with disabilities.
