>Two suggestions for you from the Canadian front:
>
>1. L'Arche Daybreak communities
>(founded by Jean Vanier with people with complex developmental needs) in
>Richmond Hill and Toronto, Ontario have had for 10 years a dance troupe of
>mixed abilities called "Spirit Movers" - you should be able to find info
>and a contact from their website
>http://www.larchecanada.org/Community%20Pages/daybreak.htm
>- there are email addresses on there for who to contact - Kathy Kelly is
>the director of it as far as I can recall.
>- they dance at many external events to promote the message of L'Arche
>which is about the gifts in difference and disability and the richness of
>relationships between people of differing capacities.
>- for scope, they danced for the Pope at the World Youth day in Toronto
>last year for several hundred thousand folks.
>- these communities began as catholic but are now officially INTER-FAITH in
>Canada in terms of membership and approach
>
>
>2. Ryerson University - Disability Studies Program
>in Toronto Ontario has made phenomenal strides in promoting arts and
>culture in, for & with the disability community - if you go to their
>website, there should be more info on the many eclectic events that they
>have run and have planned as part of their vision.
>Melanie Panitch is the school Director and Catherine Frazee is the arts
>person.
