EASPD (European Association of Service providers for Persons with Disabilities) is a European NGO network representing over 12,000 social and health support provider organisations across Europe and across disabilities. Their objective is to promote equal opportunities for persons with disabilities through effective and high-quality service systems. They work towards ensuring the full implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UN CRPD) and they are accredited to the Conference of States Parties to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
Let’s build a Europe for all!
They strive to deliver high-quality services promoting the full participation and inclusion in society of all persons with disabilities. They believe that support services play a key role in enabling people to enjoy their human rights on an equal basis, beyond disability or any other factor. It is precisely this belief that guides their work in Brussels, Strasbourg and throughout Europe.
