Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

The Town of Collingwood is committed to building an inclusive, equitable, and accessible community where everyone feels valued, respected, and a sense of belonging. Our diversity strengthens who we are as a community. 

Building an Inclusive Community

We are honoured to collaborate with the Unity Collective to build an inclusive Collingwood together. The Unity Collective welcomes and celebrates our diversity through unified and collective collaboration and action. The Town recognizes the importance of ongoing learning (and unlearning) to help build awareness and understanding of our diversity in cultural identity, race, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, ability, religion, age, and other diverse backgrounds that shape our life experiences.

The Town of Collingwood stands against all forms of racism. Accepting that racism exists within our society and that it takes many shapes and forms, is an important first in order to take action. We must also work towards building greater understanding and awareness of Canada's history of colonialism, racism and oppression.
