Baby Blues Connection pledges to:
Commit to Anti-Racist Work
We pledge to engage in long-term commitment to becoming an anti-racist organization. With this pledge, we commit ourselves to honor and embrace diversity, and to stand against racism wherever it appears.
Keep the Conversation Going
We pledge to engage in difficult conversations and work hard to examine our internal biases.
Advocate for Diversity
We pledge to identify which lived experiences are not reflected on the board and volunteers and advocate to have these experiences represented. Once a part of the agency, make sure supports are in place to highlight the diverse perspectives represented.
Being antiracist isn’t always easy, but BBC believes it’s important
As an organization, we pledge to stand up for what is just and make way for the voices and experiences of traditionally marginalized communities.
Engage in Continuous Learning
We acknowledge that we’re all at different points in learning what it means to be anti-racists and our organization reflects this. We pledge to continue to support one another as we learn.
Practice Active Listening
We pledge to center and uplift Black, Indigenous and People of Color’s voices and intersectional issues important to our community. We pledge to listen to those who have a different heritage, culture, and experiences from our own with open hearts and open minds, and to learn from them what actions, practices, policies, or structures they experience as racist.
