Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility (IDEA)

Creating Spaces for Healing That Honour Every Story.

​

At the Centre for Grief and Healing, we believe in fostering spaces where everyone—regardless of identity, background, or ability—feels seen, valued, and supported. Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility (IDEA) are not just guiding principles for us; they are active commitments that shape every part of our work.

INCLUSION

Creating safer, welcoming spaces where every voice is valued.

DIVERSITY

Honouring the unique identities and experiences of every person we serve.

EQUITY

Addressing barriers and bridging gaps to ensure fair access to grief support.

ACCESSIBILITY

Ensuring our services are available to all, including those with disabilities and financial constraints.

Call to Action

We believe that inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility are collective efforts. If you’re interested in partnering with us, volunteering, or learning more about our IDEA initiatives, we’d love to connect. Together, we can create spaces of healing and hope for everyone.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

We want to acknowledge the land on which we gather, and where the Centre for Grief and Healing (BFO-H/P) operates. This land has been and is still inhabited by many Indigenous Peoples since the last Ice Age which was 13,000 years ago. In particular, we acknowledge the territory of the Anishinabek-Ojibway/Chippewa, Huron-Wendat, and Haudenosaunee peoples. The land that is home to the First Nations, Metis, and Inuit people. We are grateful to now be on the land that is the land of Indigenous Peoples since time began.

​

The land we are presently on is under the stewardship of the Mississaugas of the Credit, who are the signatories of the treaty and holders of the area. We recognize that the land we are on was taken away through colonization, oppression, and expropriation. In the hopes for a better future and building relationships, we recognize, require, and honour what is in the truth and reconciliation report and the calls to action. We acknowledge and are grateful for having the privilege of being where we are, for this land, and for the Indigenous Peoples who have and continue to inhabit this land.

 

This Land Acknowledgment was created in collaboration with Indigenous Elder, Cat Criger.
