Chosen Family Workshop - North Bay

This training session is part of the awareness tour organized by Fondation Émergence, which is taking place across the province of Ontario.

It will be held in the auditorium of the North Bay Public Library, located at 271 Worthington St E, North Bay, ON P1B 1H1, Canada.

1 in 4 people in Canada is a caregiver, meaning this reality affects nearly everyone at some point in their lives. However, LGBTQ+ caregivers remain largely invisible in our society and often face situations where they do not feel comfortable being themselves, which sometimes leads to reluctance in accessing social and health services, as well as caregiver support services.

That is why Fondation Émergence has developed the "Chosen Family" program to assist environments in their efforts to include sexual and gender diversity.

This training will cover:

• An introduction to the components of sexual and gender diversity
