Camp Kennebec does not allow discrimination.
- Discrimination is any practice of behaviour, whether intentional or not, which has a negative effect on an individual or group based on prohibited grounds (for example, disability, gender, race, receipt of public assistance, sexual orientation) unrelated to the person’s abilities or objective considerations. Discrimination may arise because of direct or differential treatment or it may arise from the unequal treatment effect of treating individuals or groups in the same way.
- Everyone must respect the dignity and rights of all staff, campers, volunteers and suppliers
- Camp Kennebec asks for input from all language groups represented within our community
- Camp Kennebec holds meetings in locations that are accessible to community members with disabilities and where facilities allow, supply the right seating and communication pacing.
- Violations of our Human Rights Policy may result in either the dismissal of staff or removal of campers. In certain circumstances, violators of the Human Rights Policy may also be violators of legislation which could result in other sanctions as dictated by law (e.g. violation of the Ontario Human Rights Code Amendments – Bill 137).
