Our website is under construction! Sorry for the inconvenience but this is long overdue. Please email uvicssd@uvic.ca for support or any questions.

We acknowledge and respect the lək̓ʷəŋən and W̱SÁNEĆ peoples on whose traditional unceded territory the Society of the Students with a Disability stands and the Songhees, Xwsepsum and W̱SÁNEĆ peoples whose historical relationships with the land continue to this day. We seek to continually decolonize all forms of organizing structures and center Indigenous peoples when considering what accessibility looks like.
