Big Brothers Big Sisters of Victoria Capital Region is committed to sustaining an environment where representation matters, diversity is celebrated, and everyone is welcomed. We believe that each and every individual has limitless potential – this means that all people and their diverse abilities, gender identities and expressions, biological sex identities, 2SLGBTQIA+ identities, races, religions, cultures, and orientations are worthy of support, respect, and empowerment. We honour the diversity and intersectionality of people, families, cultures, traditions, and experiences. We uphold the rights of all our volunteers, youth, families, staff, students, and community to respect, dignity, fairness, caring, equality, self-esteem, and inclusion.
