Our commitments

We're committed to reducing socio-economic inequality.

We believe that:

• What we look like and where we're from should not determine our place in society.
• All people are equal in rights, dignity and potential.
• Inequality based on race, gender and other factors is not just unfortunate, it is unjust.

Our guidelines

These guidelines inform the work that we do.

Equity

We work towards fair and just opportunities and outcomes for all people.

Racial equity

We help develop policies, practices and strategic investments to:

• Reverse racial disparity trends.
• Eliminate institutional racism.
• Ensure that outcomes and opportunities for all people are no longer based on race.

• The Transgender Equity Council (TEC)
