Cultivating Community Connections to Collaboratively Challenge and Change
This issue explores opportunities for us, as a Limestone community, to continue to build meaningful connections, collaboratively counter oppression, and collectively challenge and advocate for equitable change.
Have you heard of LDSB's New Staff Networks?
These networks aim to provide a confidential empowering space for sharing experiences, peer-to-peer connection, informal mentorship, and increase a sense of belonging. Open to any employee of the LDSB, they aim to provide a space for members to voice and address concerns that impact their lived experience within the Limestone District School Board, and help provide input in determining priorities and strategies supporting staff, students, and communities with Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Indigeneity actions.
Currently, 3 staff networks have been established:
1. Black, Indigenous, and Racialized Staff Network
2.2SLGBTQ+ Staff Network
3. People Living with Disabilities Staff Network
If you are interested in joining any of these networks, please do not hesitate to reach out Rae McDonald (mcdonaldr@limestone.on.ca) for further information.
