EQUITY, DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION

The College strives to create an inclusive environment on Council to reflect the diversity and lived experiences of its registrants and the individuals, families and communities that they serve. As part of these efforts, the College encourages applications from eligible registrants who are proficient/fluent in French and from other equity-deserving groups – including those who are Indigenous, members of visible minorities, persons living with disabilities, women and those who identify as women and/or those who are a part of the 2SLGTBQIA+ community.
