Constituent Request: Action on Dreams Delayed

Constituent Request: Action on Dreams Delayed

This campaign is an opportunity for community members across Ontario to call on their elected representatives to take meaningful action in response to the Ontario Human Rights Commission’s Dreams Delayed report. The report highlights the ongoing impact of anti-Black racism in our education system and the urgent need for accountability and systemic change.

By sending a letter to your local MPP, you are helping to ensure that the voices of Black students and families are heard, and that government leaders are pressed to uphold their human rights obligations. Collective action is critical. When many of us speak up together, it becomes much harder for decision-makers to ignore the need for change.
