After a thorough process, we’re now officially recognized through CGLCC’s national accreditation program as being Rainbow Registered. This accreditation signifies our commitment to supporting inclusivity and diversity within our organization and the clients we work with. 

Having this accreditation means that we’ve met the high standards set by the CGLCC to create a welcoming environment for the 2SLGBTQI+ community. Being Rainbow Registered helps us attract a diverse clientele and workforce, fostering a culture of acceptance and equality.

What does it mean to be Rainbow Registered?

Rainbow Registered is a national accreditation for businesses and organizations that are 2SLGBTQI+ friendly. Rainbow Registered businesses and organizations are committed to ensuring 2SLGBTQI+ customers feel welcome and accepted.

“Not only is having 2SLGBTQI+ friendly policies in your company the right thing to do – it’s also good for business. That’s why Canada’s 2SLGBTQI+ Chamber of Commerce (CGLCC) with Tourism HR Canada, have collaborated to initiate the Rainbow Registered Accreditation Program for 2SLGBTQI+ friendly businesses and organizations in Canada – regardless of the industry or size.”

Accreditation grants businesses and organizations a time-limited certification for meeting the quality standard. Businesses that are accredited get the Rainbow Registered designation, indicating that they’re ready to serve the 2SLGBTQI+ community.

Why it’s important to us. 

Fostering innovation, building strong relationships, and achieving collective success begins with creating an inclusive and welcoming workspace within our agency. When individuals and partners feel valued, respected, and heard, regardless of their backgrounds or identities, they are more likely to contribute their best ideas, engage authentically, and build lasting trust. 

We want to ensure that we’re creating an environment of belonging that boosts morale and productivity internally. We also want to ensure we’re enhancing our ability to connect with a diverse range of clients and audiences, ultimately leading to more creative, effective, and impactful work.
