2SLGBTQIA+

Hamilton Child and Family Supports recognizes the vibrant, diverse and intersectional communities falling within the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, especially when children and young persons are in contact with the child welfare system.

The organization has been an active participant at the Hamilton Pride festival for many years and we are inclusive and welcoming to potential foster and adoptive caregivers within the 2SLGBTQIA+ community.

The organization has a long-standing 2SLGBTQIA+ staff committee where we have planned learning opportunities for staff and foster caregivers, special events, and participated in the provincial self-assessment tool that allowed us to understand the key areas we need to improve service and understanding with 2SLGBTQIA+ services.
