ECRoB Partners
The ECRoB project aims to educate and create awareness of the recognized disability and medical condition of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) — for equity, inclusion, and accessibility in Canada. This work is made possible through the collaboration of partners across the disability, legal, health, and environmental sectors.
About the ECRoB ProjectA national effort, built together
The Empowering Community and Removal of Barriers (ECRoB) project has been funded in part by the Government of Canada's Social Development Partnerships Program — Disability Component.
