Accessibility

At the KV Food Basket, we strive to provide services and resources in a way that respects the dignity and independence of all community members. We also commit to giving people with disabilities the same opportunity to access our services and resources and allowing them to benefit from the same services in the same place and in a similar way as other users. If a barrier to accessing our services and resources cannot be removed, we will seek alternative ways to access the services and resources. 

Assistive Devices

We will ensure that our staff is trained and familiar with various assistive devices (provided) that may be used by people with disabilities while accessing our services and resources. People with disabilities can obtain services or resources using their own assistive devices. If an assistive device may pose a risk to the health and safety of the person with disabilities or others on the premises, KV Food Basket will accommodate the person with disabilities by providing an alternative where possible.

Communication

We will communicate with people in ways that consider their disability. We offer several methods of communication, which will promptly be provided to individuals as requested. Please ask us if you require a specific communication method, and we will do our best to accommodate you. 

Service Animals

We welcome all service animals.

Support Persons

A person with a disability whom a support person supports will be allowed to have that person accompany them while accessing our services and resources. Support persons accompanying someone with a disability are permitted the same access as the person they are accompanying. At no time will a person with a disability whom a support person accompanies be prevented from accessing their support person while receiving KV Food Basket services or resources. 

Questions

If you are unsure if you can access KV Food Basket services or resources, please contact us at KVFoodBasket@gmail.com or call 506-847-5854.

The Kennebecasis Valley Food Basket provides its services from its location in Quispamsis. We would like to respectfully acknowledge that Quispamsis exists on the traditional Mi’kmaq (mic maq) and Maliseet First Nations land.  The first inhabitants of the area now known as Quispamsis were members of the Maliseet tribe known as the Etchemin.
