Location notes:
Our meetings are generally conducted in English. One of our 3 accredited Co-Leaders speaks Arabic as her first language. The other two are bilingual English/French with English as their first language. Leaders will use whichever language(s) best serve those in attendance. With sufficient advance notice, Bangla and/or Somali interpretation may be available. Please note that our Arabic speaking Leader will be away in July. In her absence, we thank the AMA Centre for providing an Arabic speaking interpreter.

In August, we will take a summer break from the in-person aspect of our hybrid meetings. The online aspect will be available. To join us online, write to Ottawa.South@LLLC.ca to request the virtual meeting link.

In July, September, and beyond, at in person meetings, please park your stroller in the entrance vestibule and carry your baby within the building.

The seating in the Children's Room where we meet is on soft interlocking tiles of the kind one often sees in children's playrooms or gyms.

The building is of recent construction and should be barrier free, however, we have yet to host a participant who uses a wheel chair. If you roll yourself to get around, please write to Ottawa.south@lllc.ca to let us know so we can provide you with a cell phone number to call if you encounter any unexpected barriers.
