What does the badge mean?  

The badge signifies that the person who displayed it has completed The Culture of Respect 10-unit, 25-hour course 

The Culture of Respect is a personal development and interpersonal communication course centered around the exploration of our diverse identities and anti-oppression concepts.

• Ableism;

• Sexism;

• Heterosexism;

• Religious oppression;

• Racism;

• And Ageism.

What the badge doesn’t mean… 

This doesn't mean that the person who displayed their badge will never make a mistake or "knows all the answers." It isn't a rubber stamp or a free pass. The road to unlearning a harmful status quo that has been perpetuated for centuries is a long and uneven process. We never stop being able to learn more about ourselves and each other. 

Members of The Culture of Respect community value...

• Getting comfortable being uncomfortable

• Taking risks and being vulnerable

• Learning from and trusting the lived experiences of others

• Listening and using their voice

• Learning from their mistakes

• Taking accountability for both the intent and impact of their words and actions

• Compassion and acceptance for themselves and others
