Combating racism and discrimination

As part of our continued efforts to combat racism and promote diversity and inclusion across AHS, we shared our organizational Anti-Racism Position Statement earlier this summer.

This statement will help us bring a consistent and comprehensive approach to anti-racism activities across the organization. We all have a role to play in addressing racism at all levels, and there are many resources and supports available to help educate and inform us about the importance of diversity and inclusion.

Joining me on the vlog to talk about these resources and the importance our Anti-Racism Position Statement are:

• Ashwini Dake, Advisor and Registered Social Worker, Diversity and Inclusion
• Marni Panas, Program Manager, Diversity and Inclusion
• Maxine Scringer-Wilkes, registered nurse and lactation consultant, Alberta Children’s Hospital, and member of the Anti-Racism Advisory Group.
