This film screening event delves into critical discussions surrounding historical systemic racism and bias within law enforcement in Canada.

We are excited to present a hybrid screening of the thought-provoking documentary "Safer for All: The Police Accountability Bus Tour," followed by an afternoon of dialogue, collaboration and networking. Our conversations will involve legal professionals, advocates, and civil society organizations, focusing on the challenges faced by victims and survivors of crime in their interactions with law enforcement.

This event is not just about dialogue; it's about action. We aim to build connections, foster collaboration, and pave the way for policy changes that honor the experiences of affected individuals and families. Let's work together to create safer and more just communities for everyone.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to be part of the solution. Mark your calendars and RSVP today!
