Radical Welcome/Community Agreements
As a Creating Change Volunteer, you understand that the Creating Change Conference welcomes and affirms the many identities of our attendees, including but not limited to race, ethnicity, cultural background, language and country of origin, faith traditions, sex/gender, gender identities such as transgender and gender non-conforming, sexual orientations such as lesbian, gay, heterosexual, bisexual, queer, Two-Spirit, intersex, same-gender loving, asexual, polyamorous, pansexual and omnisexual. You are ready, willing, and able to treat each person with whom you interact with civility, courtesy, and kindness. You will respect each person’s race, ethnicity, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, faith tradition, physical appearance, physical and mental ability, language, and communications style; and you will do your best to help and assist them. Thank you for upholding these community agreements and making Creating Change a place of radical welcome for all.
