September 7, 2022 - WE BELONG Mayoral Candidate Forum
With the upcoming Surrey Municipal Election happening on October 15th, 2022, We Belong Surrey and Seeds of Change Surrey will be hosting a forum on Social Equity - we invite community members who are interested in these issues to join us! We are looking forward to positive change in our community.
As a collective of non-profit agencies and community-serving groups, we frequently see how community policies and programs can impact the lives of the people we serve. Surrey is one of the fastest growing communities within British Columbia, and has a significant amount of diversity in individual and community lived experiences. Our elected officials play a paramount role in enhancing community systems and facilitating policy change that has the capacity to positively influence our community health and wellness. This debate will center around issues pertaining to social equity and the social determinants of health and wellbeing. Topics will include:
- Poverty reduction
- Food security
- Community inclusion and services for people who are BIPOC, 2SLGBTQ+, newcomers, and people living with disabilities
- Surrey specific housing issues
