The Halton Equity Diversity Roundtable is a collaborative network dedicated to advancing equity, diversity, and inclusion across the Halton region. We bring together individuals, organizations, and businesses who share a common vision: building a community where everyone feels they belong.
Our mission is to strengthen the capacity of people and organizations to create equitable and inclusive spaces through learning, connection, and shared action. Together, we work to foster a community where individuals of all identities—across race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, age, ability, and socioeconomic background—are valued and empowered.
Through collaboration and collective impact, HEDR strives to break down barriers, challenge systemic inequities, and nurture a culture of respect, understanding, and belonging throughout Halton.
Before I ever walked through the doors (or logged into an online forum) I wasn’t sure who would truly understand what it meant to carry the invisible weight of being “the only one” in a room: the only Black woman, the only voice speaking up about race, the only person reminding others that equity isn’t just a checkbox.
Then I found HEDR. At HEDR, I didn’t have to explain myself; that alone was powerful.
It wasn’t just the workshops, or the shared language around anti-oppression, it was the energy. Intentionality. The way members leaned into discomfort and showed up to practice accountability. My experience here reminded me that change isn’t always loud, or fast. Sometimes, it’s in the questions we’re brave enough to ask each other.
This community helped me root myself more deeply in my own work, whether I’m advocating in a boardroom, facilitating in a classroom, or holding space in community. Because of HEDR, I don’t feel alone in the push for systems that actually honour all of us.

LAND ERKENNING
De Halton Equity and Diversity Roundtable is dankbaar te erkennen dat we ons bevinden op het grondgebied en het territorium van de Mississauga's van de Credit First Nation en het traditionele territorium van de Haudenosaunee en de Huron-Wendat.
We erkennen dat Halton de thuisbasis is van vele First Nations-, Inuit- en Metis-volkeren uit het verleden, het heden en de toekomst. We blijven nadenken over het verleden en erkennen wat ons te wachten stond, terwijl we erkennen hoe belangrijk het is om het pad van Waarheid en Verzoening te bewandelen.
We zijn toegewijd aan het vergroten van het bewustzijn voor het opbouwen van systemische inclusie en gelijkheid in Halton, en we streven ernaar om effectief te leren en samen te werken om ons vooruit te helpen naar een gemeenschap waar individuen worden gewaardeerd, gerespecteerd en gemachtigd.
