CANCELLED ID for All: Reducing Barriers to Identification Services LIMITED
Tuesday June 10, 2025 9:00am - 10:00am PDT
Room 207, Prince George Conference & Civic Centre,
CANCELLED

What does it mean to be a person without ID? Without a legal identity, it can become nearly impossible to access essential services including food banks, healthcare, housing and social programs.

For any individual, and especially those facing compounding barriers, the lack of identification can be a painful and dehumanizing maze.   On top of daily needs, the lack of ID can block access to some legal rights and protections, including voting, registration for services, and resolving legal issues. For those whose identification does not match their name or gender the above problems can be compounded.
