Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Accessibility (EDIA)
Days of Significance Calendar
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.
The calendar provides opportunities for learning, reflection, recognition and celebration, while helping us better understand and appreciate the diverse experiences, identities and perspectives within our community. It is curated by our EDIA Committee as a resource to support meaningful engagement throughout the year.
Note: Select days may vary by a few days before or after the indicated date due to the observance of the lunar calendar for some cultures/faiths and time zones.

Start of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month
September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness of childhood cancer and recognize the children, youth and families whose lives are affected by a cancer diagnosis. We recognize the strength and resilience of children and families navigating cancer and honour the importance of compassionate, accessible supports that help children participate, connect and reach their full potential.
