Join Us for the Supporting Equity in Trades Conference!
CAF-FCA is excited to bring together industry leaders, advocates, and allies for a vital conversation on promoting equity and inclusion in Canada’s skilled trades. This event is dedicated to driving systemic change that empowers women, Indigenous peoples, 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, racialized individuals, persons with disabilities, and other underrepresented groups. Together, we will work to bridge the gaps in resources and support necessary for their success.

Key Focus Areas:

• Be a True Ally: Learn actionable strategies to amplify marginalized voices and create meaningful change within your communities.
• Lead with Commitment: Engage with experts who are driving equity in the skilled trades, setting new standards for inclusivity and paving the way for systemic improvements.
• Fuel Progress through Equity: Understand how prioritizing equity not only addresses the skilled trades shortage but also advances equity-priority tradespeople, building a stronger, more inclusive economy.

Why Attend?
Whether you’re an advocate, a skilled trades professional, or a leader in the field, this conference offers a unique opportunity to collaborate, conduct a gap analysis of current practices, and engage in a national conversation about the equitable changes needed in the trades. Together, we can create a workforce where everyone has equal opportunities to thrive and succeed.
