Accessibility Services

Together the Federation and UNB/STU’s Congress Accessibility Committee are committed to improving the accessibility of Congress for delegates with disabilities.

At all times, there will be a vehicle on campus solely dedicated to transporting delegates with accessibility needs. It can accommodate delegates and their wheelchairs, and will be used to transport delegates around campus, from Registration and Book Fair, and to their meetings.
