Typically the UFA SAC acts as an advisory council to the school and does not participate in or run fundraising initiatives as a council. All parents are welcome to come out to participate. You can reach the SAC at the following e-mail address:

Past Workshop:
Owning Your Story – Having Authentic Conversations on Race and Diversity

Join the Ursula Franklin Academy Community, UFA School Advisory Council and the UFA Parents Anti-Oppression Committee for an exciting interactive workshop with other parents of high school-aged children in the West End of Toronto. All parents and teachers from UFA, Humberside Collegiate Institute, Western Technical-Commercial School, The Student School, and Parkdale Collegiate Institute are welcome! 

This workshop will be on Zoom on Wednesday, April 6th, from 7-8:30 pm. This workshop will be facilitated by Shauna and Demore Barnes of Create Possibility. https://www.create-possibility.com/

Come prepared to discuss race and diversity through an anti-oppressive lens. This discussion will be held in a virtual brave space of mutual respect and yearning for understanding. Expect to be challenged and engaged with many opportunities to learn and unlearn. We will be guided by the principles of courageous conversations see here: http://www.nonprofitinclusiveness.org/agreements-courageous-conversations-and-active-learning.

 This is a highly experiential session – this is not a presentation. All participants in the interactive workshop will be asked to have their cameras on and participation is encouraged. The zoom link will be to sent to all registrants. This workshop is gratefully supported by a grant from the TDSB Parent Involvement Advisory Committee and the Ontario Government.
