Selection Process for the Equity Advisory Group

Whereby there are several applicants to the Equity Advisory Group (EAG) for an identified group, a selection process will be based on:

experience with children and youth;
knowledge of community and school concerns of the identified group that the applicant wishes to represent;
understanding of anti-racism, anti-oppressive practices and colonization;
ability to commit to the work of the EAG over the two-year term; and
basic awareness of Human Rights in Ontario

In addition to the written application, there will be a follow-up meeting with the Co-Chairs of the Safe and Inclusive Schools Committee to review the EAG’s purpose and explore the candidate’s interest in being part of Grand Erie’s EAG.

Any potential conflicts of interests will need to be identified as part of this process.

Members of the EAG will serve a two-year term, with the opportunity to renew.
