Today, the Honourable Lawrence MacAulay, Minister of Veterans Affairs and Associate Minister of National Defence, the Honourable Ernie Hudson, Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure, and Nancy Anderson, Executive Director of Inclusions East Inc., announced a joint investment of more than $3.5 million to upgrade the accessibility features of Inclusions East's facilities in Montague and Three Rivers.
This investment will enable the replacement of the current Inclusions East training centre by combining two existing buildings with a newly constructed portion. The replacement training centre will offer a multi-sensory environment, a meeting space, an activity room, a music and art room, a craft room, and accessible washroom facilities to allow for greater accessibility for persons with disabilities and for general community use.
Furthermore, additional renovations to the newly acquired Inclusions East building located in the Town of Three Rivers will expand operations for local youth and enhance the delivery of business skills training programs.
This investment will help Inclusions East improve the safety and accessibility of its facilities and make their programming available to more individuals with disabilities.
By investing in infrastructure, the Government of Canada is growing our country's economy, building resilient communities, and improving the lives of Canadians.
