    Please join the NVPAC and The Other People for an interactive evening helping to develop cultural competence in engaging with the challenging issue of hate and racism in Canada.

    Register in advance.

    This is a presentation is for our community members, caregivers, and education staff. With rising concerns of inequity around cultures and the BIPOC community its important to provide information and engagement on minimizing and erradicating discrimination of all types.  Building a sense of understanding comes from both the home and school environment. All adults in our community that engage with the student population need to have a sense of understanding of what affects discrimination instills in our children. Understanding brings compassion that allows us to provide a strong and safe community for everyone.

    Thank you for your support for the NVPAC Anti Racism Advisory Committee.
