Pride at CNC

June marks Pride Month, and celebrations will take place in communities and at the College. I would like to share some thoughts with you as we reflect on Pride and its positive impact throughout our College community.

I often turn to our lhulh whuts’odutel’eh | Learning Together strategic plan in helping to explain how we want CNC to advance over time. We made certain to include fostering collaboration, diversity, and inclusion into the plan. Notably, the plan calls for us to promote equity and social justice through college processes, practices, programming, training, and supports.

I look at the College community as a place where we all have our opportunity to excel; to find our passion and purpose; and to build our networks, communities, and relationships. I see Pride reflected in our values of respect, integrity, and relationships.

Pride at CNC is about building a culture of acceptance and respect, where all members of the College community can be safe to be who they are. While we may mark a month of celebration, this is a daily goal for us: to make sure anyone who wants to be part of the CNC community is welcome.

I welcome and encourage your participation in Pride activities. Thank you to the Prince George campus Pride sub-committee which will organize the Get the Scoop on Pride event on Tuesday June 27th. You can find more on the college’s events page.
