Anti-oppression, anti-discrimination and Equity work happens in community.
As community-centered service professionals (counsellors, social workers, educators, administrators, and others); we are allies and advocates for our community, in the face of ongoing hate, and harm and anti-equity narratives.
As we wrap up Mental Health Awareness Month- join us and Iona Sky, as we hold space for the difficult questions, and some imperfect answers for healing and hope. This space is for us – the helpers!
