Accessibility

Cochrane Family and Community Support Services (FCSS), along with other Town of Cochrane staff, as well as the community, are working together to make Cochrane an accessible place for all. We want to educate businesses and developers about the need for physical accessibility within the Town. We also want to acknowledge and celebrate the businesses who are Accessibility Champions. For more information, please call FCSS at 403-851-2250.
