At Black Creek CHC, staff, care team members, and members of the Board of Directors lead by example. 

Black Creek Community Health Centre recognizes that certain people in our society face oppressive experiences because of individual and systemic unequal power related to race, colour, culture, ethnicity, language and linguistic origin, ability, socio-economic class, age, ancestry, nationality, place of birth, religion or faith or other forms of conscientiously held beliefs, sex, gender (including gender identity and expression), sexuality (including sexual orientation or preference), family status (including marital status), and residency/migratory status in Canada and types of life experiences.

Black Creek Community Health Centre does not tolerate racism, prejudice or any form of discrimination.  We are committed to representation of diversity in employment and service delivery. We will work towards confronting and eliminating discriminatory or racist incidents and behaviour at the individual, organizational and societal level.

Black Creek Community Health Centre particularly recognizes the devastating impact of anti-Black and anti-Indigenous racism.  Consequently, it is committed to working with individuals from these groups to understand and support the eradication of these forms of oppression.  To this end, continuous efforts are made to build cultural competency among staff, students, and volunteers and to monitor our responsiveness to affected community members.
