Brian Hennen Inclusive Community Lecture: Living in Community is a Human Right
Are you interested in learning about how disability law intersects with inclusive housing?
Join Dalhousie University's Department of Family Medicine for the second annual Brian Hennen Inclusive Community Lecture "Living in Community is a Human Right" and explore how better health outcomes start with a home.
Dr. Brian Hennen (1937-2021) was a family doctor and a tireless supporter and advocate for persons with disabilities, focusing on developmental disabilities. In his memory, the Brian Hennen Inclusive Community Lecture Series was established in 2023 at Dal.
The event will include an opening lecture by Vince Calderhead about the groundbreaking and historic Disability Rights Coalition human rights case against the Province of Nova Scotia.
His address will set the stage for the My Home My Rights project participants, who will offer a first voice exploration of what it actually looks like to live in the community with appropriate supports and with human rights respected.
