Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Accessibility (EDIA)
“Respect underlies all we do”
It's a
core organizational value at Niagara Children's Centre and guides our commitment to creating an equitable, diverse, inclusive, and accessible environment for everyone.
We value the diverse identities, experiences, perspectives, and abilities of the children, youth, families, staff, board members, and community partners who make up our community. We recognize that creating an inclusive culture is an ongoing journey that requires continuous learning, reflection, meaningful dialogue and a willingness to evolve our practices.
We are each responsible for contributing to a culture where everyone feels respected, valued and included. We work to identify and remove barriers so children, youth and families can fully participate in their communities, including in social, recreational and educational settings.
We are committed to listening, learning and improving. Share your ideas, experiences or feedback with us to help strengthen our equity, diversity, inclusion and accessibility efforts. Feedback can be sent to
