DPCDSB Black Community Advisory Council (BCAC)
“..let us love, not in word or speech, but in truth and action.”
1 John 3:18
Mandate:
The DPCDSB Black Community Advisory Council (BCAC) will play an active role in reviewing, advising, and making recommendations to the Board of Trustees on strategies to identify and dismantle anti-Black racism within all educational spaces. The council will work towards creating equitable outcomes with a commitment to the implementation of policy, practice, and pedagogy that is aimed at supporting student achievement and eliminating the barriers faced by Black students. As part of this commitment, the focus is to confront and dismantle anti-Black racism in productive, cooperative, and effective ways that offer real solutions and are supported through accountability measures. The council will work in collaboration with DPCDSB to fulfill our shared vision to ensure that Black students thrive academically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually.
