About this Event

Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging (EDI&B) is everyone’s responsibility. Embedding EDI&B into an organization's DNA is a team effort, but it takes leadership commitment to keep it a top priority. This one-day conference is a hands-on, interactive opportunity for leaders to learn about and discuss EDI&B practices to support strategic and operational planning and service delivery. It will be a key opportunity for peer networking around a shared EDI&B focus.

Who should attend?

Organizational leaders interested in learning how to embed EDI&B into strategic and operational planning and service deliver within your agency;

Decision makers and action takers moving EDI&B forward in their organization;

Those interested in knowledge sharing across agencies and organizations, through networking and case studies;

Those championing a movement for EDI&B social accountability in your organization and across your teams.

Presented by the Child, Youth & Family Services Coalition of Simcoe County in collaboration with a committee of EDI&B Focused Member Agencies.
