Connecting Disability to… finding home after institutionalization

from Connecting Disability · host Accessible Media Inc.

In time for the holidays, we’re discussing what it means to find a home. This November, Vicky Levack of Halifax finally left the long-term care facility where she had lived since she was 21. She joined Meagan to talk about what it’s like adjusting to life in the community after being institutionalized, why her advocacy isn’t finished, and her pet peeve with princess movies. Thank you so much to everyone who joined us and listened in 2022! We will be back in 2023!
