Description

Description

The "Breaking Barriers" retrofit project aims to improve the energy efficiency and accessibility of the ACB Wellness Resource Centre. The project will involve installing energy-efficient windows, lighting, and HVAC systems to reduce the building’s environmental impact and operational costs. Additionally, the centre’s layout will be redesigned to create barrier-free paths, including the installation of automatic, wheelchair-accessible doors and an exterior ramp, ensuring ease of access for all members of the community, especially those with mobility impairments. Finally, the subfloors will be upgraded to smooth, safe vinyl flooring, improving traction and significantly reducing the risk of accidents. This project will ensure that everyone can fully benefit from the centre’s weekly food bank and wraparound services.
