Intersectionality helps us understand how different forms of inequality and disadvantage compound themselves to make bigger obstacles for a person. Here at Pawsitive Ripples Effect Project, we want to shine a light on intersectionality.
When people face inequalities, they'll likely face societal traumas that come from racism, homophobia, ableism, and other forms of oppression. Different types of inequalities overlap and are compounded, so people face a heavier impact, a greater risk of traumatic experiences, and further restricted access to supports that create bigger and bigger obstacles.
Our aim is to spread awareness and meet this with inclusive, equitable practices.
If you have any wisdom to share with us so we can ensure our policies and practices are inclusive and equitable, we'd love to hear from you.
