Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility (IDEA) Committee
Annapolis County is home to more than 20,000 residents who individually have different backgrounds, education, experiences, languages, cultures, ethnicities, races, abilities, and beliefs.
It is imperative that all local governments and the communities that make up all of Annapolis County provide the required leadership to ensure our entire community is supportive of ALL residents each day. This support requires a wide breadth of strategies, policies, processes, programs, services, and infrastructure that recognizes while equality is desirable, equity is what is needed.
To achieve equity for all, the four local governments in Annapolis County; Town of Annapolis Royal, Village of Lawrencetown, Town of Middleton, and Municipality of the County of Annapolis, have chosen to develop one joint strategy to support the positive growth and change required to create an inclusive, diverse, equitable county free of racism.
