Equity, Diversity and Inclusion
In March of 2021, the Equity, Diversity and Inclusion committee was founded as an effort to support equity, diversity and inclusion within the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference. The ACAC’s E.D.I. Committee encourages the development and maintenance of collaborative relationships with colleges, student-athletes and service organizations in order to maintain an atmosphere in which members of minority groups are fairly represented and treated equitably at all levels within the ACAC.
The ACAC is dedicated to fostering an environment that values equal opportunity, safety, and respect for everyone in our diverse community. Together, let’s create a future where everyone feels welcome and empowered to participate in sports.
Here’s what you can expect if you’d like to join as a student member on the EDI committee:
-
● Collaborate on EDI-related matters
-
● Engage in dialogues with fellow ACAC student-athletes/members about EDI subjects
-
● Celebrate diversity and embrace differences
-
● Unite with passionate individuals driving change within ACAC
-
● Participate in a monthly 1-hour meeting
For those eager to join, kindly reach out to committee chair Dwayne Vigilance at dwayne.vigilance@keyano.ca. Let's shape a more inclusive future together.
