Join the St. Lawrence – Rideau Immigration Partnership on November 3rd at the Brockville Memorial Centre for another incredible Diversity Day!  This year’s theme is The Shapes of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, where we focus not just on the how and why of EDI, but on the work it takes to continue the work beyond the outset. With amazing local speakers, learning opportunities, topical game, and networking time, it’s a great free event open to everyone!
