June 2008 AGMJune 2008 AGM Our Vision: Our vision is the optimal health and wellness of people and communities of all gender identities and sexual orientations, as well as intersex people. This includes – and is not limited to - Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Intersex, Two-Spirit, Transsexual, Transgender, Queer and Questioning people and our allies. Our Mission: The Rainbow Health Network is a catalyst and a resource for activities promoting the health and wellness of people of diverse sexual orientations and gender identities, in Toronto and beyond*. We are committed to equity-based, community-based, anti-racism and anti-oppression values. We strive for representation of the full diversity of our communities and commit to building partnerships to achieve this goal. *As a volunteer network with limited resources, our activities are focused primarily in Toronto, and our advocacy and lobbying primarily in Ontario. However, since issues of sexual and gender diversity cross all boundaries, we are open to sharing information and support across provincial and national borders.
