President’s Message
As the President of the Board of Directors, I am thrilled to welcome you to the SaskAbilities website. Here, you’ll find a wealth of information about our innovative programs and discover our commitment to SaskAbilities’ vision, mission, and values that drive our services in communities throughout Saskatchewan. I encourage you to explore and learn more about the positive impact we strive to make for people experiencing disability, their families, caregivers, and support networks.
I am also happy to celebrate SaskAbilities’ rich history in Saskatchewan as we commemorate the organization’s 75 years of exceptional service. While SaskAbilities has grown and evolved from its humble beginnings in 1950, what remains constant is the commitment to serving the community through purpose-driven work. I am proud of how far the organization has come, and I am inspired by the unwavering dedication of staff and the trust of clients who are shaping the future of SaskAbilities.
Serving as a Board Member for the past 10 years has been an incredible privilege and source of immense pride. Having family members who have accessed SaskAbilities’ services has given me a deeply personal perspective on the invaluable impact it has on individuals and their families. I have cherished the opportunity to visit SaskAbilities locations across Saskatchewan and witness firsthand the dedication and compassion of the staff and the joy and fulfillment on the faces of the clients.
The success of SaskAbilities is a true reflection of the incredible support we receive from the community. I must acknowledge and thank the many exceptional donors, supporters, and stakeholders who are direct contributors to the longevity of the organization. Together, we can and will continue to build inclusive communities for people of all abilities.
Thank you again for taking the time to visit our website. I invite you to explore the pages and learn how you can make a positive impact on the lives of individuals experiencing disability in your community today.
Paul Blackstock, President
