Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Indigeneity Education

All Welcome Here, based in Prince Edward County, Ontario, is a leader in offering Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Indigeneity training and workshops. We offer dynamic and engaging DEI (or as we prefer, DEII) education to individuals, community members, small workplaces and large organizations. Our BIPOC-led DEII training focuses on anti-racism and intersectionality in a rural and small-town environment. Our lived experience and professional knowledge provides us with insight and expertise for addressing anti-racism issues in predominantly white communities. We offer training and workplace sessions in Prince Edward County and the surrounding Hastings and Northumberland Areas.
