Community Race Relations Committee of Peterborough We work to encourage and promote equitable race relations by providing anti-racism services including public education, advocacy, and consultations.

The Community Race Relations Committee of Peterborough (CRRC) is a volunteer-based non-profit community based organization that is committed to encouraging and promoting equitable race relations. CRRC supports the basic principle that all individuals in Canada are equal in dignity and rights. CRRC’s strategies are aimed at identifying and eliminating all forms of institutional and systemic discrimination, and recognizes the ways in which all forms of oppression intersect with racism. CRRC is available to assist persons or groups on matters relating to racism. CRRC provides advocacy supports, consultation services, consultations, and public education initiatives for the purposes of promoting greater understanding of race related issues. CRRC has been funded by the City of Peterborough since 1983. CRRC has one paid part-time staff member, a volunteer Board of Directors and an extensive network of concerned individuals.

✨ Join us for our last event of the year!✨

This is a 4- hour, hands-on training geared towards community organizers, change makers + activists who want to build safer, more connected movements in Nogojiwanong / Peterborough📣✊🏾

Learn practical de-escalation tools, how to intervene in harmful moments, respond to interpersonal harm, and show up meaningfully for marginalized and at-risk communities. We’ll explore care planning, pod mapping, and healing justice approaches that centre safety, repair, and collective support.

You’ll leave with tangible skills, accountability tools, and renewed confidence in how to care for each other — inside and outside our movement!

All are welcome !

This workshop is FREE with lunch provided but registration is required !
