INCLUSION AND BELONGING

INCLUSION AND BELONGING The Inclusion and Belonging portfolio, an SSE campus partner, offers four key areas that support learner success: Black Student Support and Engagement (BSSE), LGBTQ+ Resource Centre, Spirituality and Wellness Centre, and Indigenous Education & Engagement. The Inclusion and Belonging portfolio reports to the Vice-President, Inclusion and Belonging. SSE collaborates with these departments year-round on various student programs and initiatives.

BLACK STUDENT SUPPORT AND ENGAGEMENT The Black Student Support and Engagement (BSSE) Program seeks to provide learners who identify as Black, African, and Caribbean with community, resources and support to help them fully maximize on their campus experience. Our goal is to create a holistic environment, for academic, social and professional development, and civic engagement for all Black identifying students at Humber and the University of Guelph-Humber. BSSE offers programming such as the King’s Gathering, Circle of Queens or Blaq Collective, Learning Skills Workshops in collaboration with Peer Assisted Learning Services, Black Heritage Month and Black Excellence Orientation events.

LGBTQ+ RESOURCE CENTRE The LGBTQ+ Resource Centre works to promote safer, braver, positive spaces at Humber College and offers a dedicated space at both the North and Lakeshore campuses. During the school year the LGBTQ+ Resource Centre offers a variety of ways to for folks to connect with one another, access resources, and build community. We offer a range of discussion groups, large-scale events, and activity groups. We also coordinate events in June for Pride Month. LGBTQ+ Resource Centre offers programming such as Qrafty, 2SLGBTQ+ Library, Queer Book Club, QSocial, BlacQ Collective, and more!
