Diversity Promise
Dear Potential Clients of Safe Place,
We wanted to add a page to specifically acknowledge the LGBTQ+ community and communities of color. Too often we brush issues that arise in support services, and in doing so the white and privileged further oppress you.
We want to be intentional and clear that Safe Place is truly a safe place for you. It is meant to validate and honor your experiences. We can promise you that we will not invalidate your experiences, and will not undermine the unique challenges you face.
Lastly, we are dedicated to updating our knowledge about our own cultural competencies, and how that can impact you in the services you can receive from Safe Place. While we do not expect clients to teach us, we will check-in regularly to make sure you are continuing to feel safe, supported, and seen as we work together.
Warmly,
WellCat Safe Place Team
