Description

Specialties

BACI is a place where children and adults of all abilities are supported to reach for their dreams and make decisions about their lives — where they want to live, work, learn and grow… who their friends are… what they believe in.

History

Established in 1956.

BACI was created in 1956, when parents of children with disabilities in Burnaby gathered to advocate for the rights of their sons and daughters. We have grown into a non-​profit organization that provides innovative services to over 1,000 children, youth and adults with developmental disabilities and their families in Metro Vancouver.

We provide a wide range of training, development, social/​recreational and employment opportunities. Throughout BACI and in our social enterprises — BC Woodworks, Action Packaging and Yard ‘n Works — we support the employment (or economic inclusion) of people with disabilities.

BACI continues to seek opportunities to increase social awareness and effect change in the way people with disabilities are viewed in our society.
