Inclusive Communities Institute

The ICI team was proud to present at the 2025 Partners in Education Summit, hosted by the NB Department of Education and Early Childhood Development!

The event brought together K-12 educators from across the province to celebrate innovation, collaboration, and student-centered learning.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to contribute and look forward to continued partnership!

🌍💙 April is World Autism Month 💙🌍 Inclusion NB has an online learning platform dedicated to providing inclusive training - the Inclusive Communities Institute. This April, take the opportunity to deepen your knowledge and advocacy with our specialized courses.

Our Mental Health courses were developed alongside a team of self-advocates who provided valuable insights and feedback to enhance the training. These courses are designed for educators, counsellors, caregivers, support workers, and those passionate about creating a more inclusive world.

📌 Mental Health and Autistic Persons – Learners will gain understanding on how to better support the unique considerations associated with the mental well-being of individuals with Autism.

📌 Achieving Equal Access – Learners will feel more confident in their ability to recognize when people are experiencing mental health issues and to respond in positive ways to help people improve their health and well-being.

In partnership with the Community Living Board-Fundy Region, ICI is excited to offer a scholarship program for complimentary training. To learn more or register, reach out to [email protected] today!
