Our IDEA Program

 

Trellis Supportive Care (‘Trellis’), its Board of Directors, leadership, and staff have long been committed to promoting an inclusive workplace and equitable access to care. Our long-standing Inclusion and Access Board committee provides guidance on diversity initiatives and holds agency leadership accountable for achieving our inclusion objectives.

In recent years Trellis has further deepened its commitment to inclusion, diversity, equity, and access (IDEA) with the launch of our IDEA Initiative. Aligned with our mission of caring, the goal of this initiative is to create a Culture of Belonging in our workplace and throughout our service offerings. Our goal is to hardwire IDEA initiatives into the Trellis fabric, creating a welcoming culture that will endure.

Our commitment to the success of the IDEA initiative is demonstrated through our multi - year tactical plan, which includes staff training, program strategy, and qualitative metrics that will support our stated goals. As well, we have made lasting provisions for our IDEA program goals, including them in our long-term strategic plan and ongoing operating budget.

We will continue to involve key staff members in the planning and implementation of the initiative, bringing forth change from within.
