We recognize the importance of language, and its impact on inclusivity and identity erasure. We acknowledge how our organizational name re-enforces the gender binary and fails to honour Trans, non-binary and gender diverse identities and we are actively advocating for change. We welcome mentors and mentees who are 2SLGBTQIA+, and we are proud to have 2SLGBTQIA+ staff leading our ! AM initiative – developing intentional and inclusive programs for mentees and mentors of the community.
We’ve launched two new programs at BBBST!
We’ll be at Church Street Public School on Saturday, June 28th and Sunday, June 29th from 10AM to 5PM as part of Pride Toronto’s Family Pride celebrations.
This year’s Pride theme is “All In.” At BBBST, that means showing up for every young person—celebrating all identities, all voices, and all families. We’re proud to be part of a community that values inclusion, connection, and showing up for one another.
Stop by our booth to learn more about our ! AM Initiative and programs, meet our team, and take part in a collaborative art activity celebrating the diversity of Toronto’s 2SLGBTQIA+ community. Whether you’re a longtime supporter or just curious to learn more, we’d love to see you there.
Let’s go All In—together!
