Accessibility Award

BOMA Canada is committed to creating a world without barriers through meaningful accessibility in the built environment – and supporting this, BOMA Canada has partnered with the Rick Hansen Foundation to invite BOMA Members to have their buildings rated for accessibility using the Rick Hansen Foundation Accessibility Certification (RHFAC) program.

The building that achieves the highest RHFAC rating will be acknowledged with a BOMA Canada and Rick Hansen Foundation Accessibility Award at the National Awards Gala, September 24, 2025, during BOMEX 2026 in Ottawa, ON, September 22-24.

To enter: Buildings must have an official Rick Hansen Foundation Accessibility Certification (RHFAC) rating that is submitted and adjudicated through the RHFAC Registry between August 16, 2025 and August 15, 2026. For more information, visit www.rickhansen.com/RHFAC
