L.E.A.R.N. Accessibility Live Session
October 25, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am
Built on the idea of a book club, L.E.A.R.N. (Listen, Engage, Act, Right Now.) is intended to bring our JIBC community together to discuss and learn about issues that matter to us.
We respectfully acknowledge the Justice Institute of British Columbia serves people across the province situated on Traditional, unceded, and Treaty Territories and the many Nations who are represented by the urban Indigenous population in British Columbia. Together we all have a responsibility to affect change and action towards our commitment to Truth & Reconciliation and Equity, Diversity & Inclusion. Through L.E.A.R.N., you can take action right now.
Visit our L.E.A.R.N. page for more information.
