The Honourable Jason Kenney Premier of Alberta 307 Legislature Building Edmonton, AB, T5K 2B6
The Honourable Jason Kenney Premier of Alberta 307 Legislature Building Edmonton, AB, T5K 2B6 March 19, 2020 Dear Premier, Re: Action Needed Now in Support of Individuals with Developmental Disabilities and Their Families We very much appreciate the recent and necessary actions you and your government have taken with respect to Albertans in general and services and supports for those with specific vulnerabilities, such seniors and women and children who rely on shelters for safety. We support the Alberta Nonprofit Network (ABNN) in its reQuest to have the government offer a broader array of assistance to non-profit supports and services. In this light we want to ensure the voices of families of children and adult sons and daughters with developmental disabilities, persons with developmental disabilities themselves and those who support them, is not lost. The very vast majority of children and adults with developmental disabilities will only remain safe if they have personal supports in their lives. For as many as possible, this principally will come from families, but unsupported, families will still be at risk. And there are thousands who do not have family in their lives and require the support provided by agencies. Many individuals with developmental disabilities will not understand their degree of vulnerability, particularly as this population has a higher incidence of health challenges. They will not be able take the necessary precautions on their own and some cannot communicate readily or independently when they are not feeling well and potentially symptomatic. Yet others have parents who fall within vulnerable categories themselves and are thus limited in providing for their sons and daughters safety without risKing their own lives. -

The Honourable Jason Kenney Premier of Alberta Office of the Premier 307 Legislature Building 10800 - 97 Avenue Edmonton, Alberta T5K 2B6
The Honourable Jason Kenney Premier of Alberta Office of the Premier 307 Legislature Building 10800 - 97 Avenue Edmonton, Alberta T5K 2B6 Dear Premier Kenney, Alberta’s nonprofit and charitable sector is prepared to support the Government of Alberta in this time of crisis to ensure support for communities and individuals. We are a vital aspect of the wider support system and, in many cases, we are at the front-line of caring for this province’s most vulnerable. To ensure continued delivery of essential services in this time of need, the Alberta Nonprofit Network (ABNN)—advocating on behalf of Alberta’s nonprofit and charitable organizations— urges the Government of Alberta to ensure additional funding is available to front-line organizations and provide assurance and flexibility regarding ongoing funding agreements. We are eager to establish clear lines of communication with the Government of Alberta and continue discussions on the impacts of COVID-19 on service delivery and the expectations of the sector. We were pleased to see the province provide emergency funding of $60 million to support select COVID-19-related social services. It was a clear confirmation of the critical role civil society organizations will play in managing this pandemic. However, it is crucial to recognize that many other front-line nonprofits will see increased demand for their services, including care facilities, food banks, and mental health organizations. Beyond front-line COVID-19-related services, many more organizations are considering the short- and long-term impacts of COVID-19 on operations. Now that organizations have taken the necessary precautions to protect staff and stakeholders from the spread of the virus, their attention has turned to the impacts that social isolation measures will have on operations, staffing, service delivery, and funding, including lost casino and event revenue. -
