June 2022

Happy June, everyone! 

June is an important month for many different cultures and peoples, as we celebrate National Indigenous History Month, Filipino Heritage Month, as well as Pride Month, relevant observances in our rich and inclusive society. At CCDI, we work hard to create resources to help you recognize, honor, and value the contributions of these diverse groups.

I invite you to explore all the webinars, educational guides, and toolkits our experts have prepared for you and your audiences, the links appear below.

Lastly, I want to thank you all for the daily work you are doing to make Canada a country where diversity, difference and inclusion are embraced and celebrated. We couldn’t do this important work without your contributions. Thank you.

Have a fantastic June, and I’ll see you all next month!

Thanks,
