Thrive Social Services is thrilled to announce its partnership with the New Inclusive Economy (NIE) to support local employers in developing more inclusive hiring and employment practices. This groundbreaking collaboration aims to promote equity, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace, particularly by encouraging the employment of individuals with disabilities.
As part of this partnership, the highly anticipated New Inclusive Economy Roadshow will be held in Victoria on June 19, 2023, from 8:00 AM to 9:30 AM. The event will occur at Inn at Laurel Point, Merino room, 680 Montreal Street.
Registration for the New Inclusive Economy Roadshow is now open at https://nie-victoria.eventbrite.ca.
Participants are encouraged to secure their spots early to ensure availability. The event will commence with a complimentary breakfast, allowing attendees to network and engage with like-minded professionals committed to building inclusive workplaces.
Our Thrive team acknowledges that our agency stands and works on the unceded Lək̓ʷəŋən territory of the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations. We also acknowledge the five W̱SÁNEĆ communities: W̱JOȽEȽP (Tsartlip), BOḰEĆEN (Pauquachin), SȾÁUTW̱,(Tsawout) W̱SIKEM (Tseycum) and MÁLEXEȽ (Malahat), as well as the Sc'ianew (Beecher Bay), T’Sou-ke, and Pacheedaht Nations and the Spune’laxutth’ (Penelekut) tribe where our work extends. We are committed to acknowledging our relationship with these unceded lands and communities, at staff and Board meetings, and during our hosted events. We encourage the evolving learning and awareness of our staff, Board, and the Thrive community, discovering and striving for meaning and personal connection within each acknowledgement.
