In this episode, Kate Chung of the Accessible Housing Network talks about the crisis in Accessible Housing. She was one of our guest speakers during the Accessiblity Summit held during the National Access-Ability Week. Kate's message is going to be that there needs to be a change to the national and provincial building codes to make universal design mandatory in all new multi-unit residential buildings, both rental and ownership.  KATE’S BIO: Kate Chung is the Co-Chair of the Accessible Housing Network. The ACCESSIBLE HOUSING NETWORK is a collaboration of non-profit Canadian organizations, advocating in support of people of all ages to live as they wish, in housing that is fully accessible.  Our mission is to ensure that, whatever their age or ability, every person in Canada can live in housing that is fully accessible. To this end, we call on every level of government to make universal design mandatory in every unit in all new multi-unit residential buildings.
