Important Tax Information for anyone who collected government support in 2020: If you collected government support like CERB, for example, you will have an extra year to pay taxes owing, interest-free. Important caveat - this only applies your total income is less than $75K. Remember, the deadline to file is still April 30, 2021 but, the deadline to pay (without interest) is now April 30, 2022....

This spring weather has us looking back to our 2019 Summer Soirée in support of @dressforsuccesstoronto. We're still smiling thinking about it too.

New Years Eve plans this year look a little different. To the whole EC community, thank you for your patience and continued support of this special space we take up on your feed, in your minds and *hopefully* in your hearts. It's been a weird year for sure; here's hoping we can be in the classroom IRL together again real soon!

Dr. Tanya (Toni) Di Mello discusses how we can address our personal contradictions with Canadian magazine @thewalrus, head to the link in bio to watch her full speech. Want to know more? Register for our class "Understanding Unconscious Bias" on November 19th. Only a few remaining seats available!

We all carry bias, it exists in every facet of our world; at work, at home, in the classroom and even social media. Our next class with Dr. Tany (Toni) De Mello will help us understand some of the ways in which we consciously and unconsciously include/exclude others and provide actionable steps to tackle our unconscious bias. Register online before November 19th to secure your spot! This is a donation based class in support of Covenant House Toronto.

Feeling like you belong, knowing that you will be included, seeing your work community as "your" community - matters. Join Dr. Tanya (Toni) De Mello on Nov. 19 to examine the ways in which we consciously and unconsciously include/exclude others. After class, you will have a better understanding of some of the biases you may hold that affect your decisions. This will be an introspective and challenging class. Limited seats are available for this class. Ticket sales will support Covenant House. https://elenasclub.ca//ec-lifestyle-understanding-unconsci

Mark your calendars! November 19th, we're digging deep on what it means to recognize and challenge bias in our everyday lives. Class info and registration launches tomorrow.
