Today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia (IDAHOBIT).
First proposed in 2004 and launched the following year globally, IDAHOBIT is a day to celebrate diversity and condemn the discrimination, violence and stigma that members of 2SLGBTQ+ communities continue to experience in our society.
One of our core values at the Peace River Regional District is respect, as we believe that consideration should be shown to everyone equally and without discrimination.
