BIRS ERG is a network supporting the well-being, development and advancement of McMaster staff members who identify as Black, Indigenous and racialized.

BIRS provides support to their members through personal development sessions, access to leadership training and hallway chats — biweekly informal gatherings where members can engage in conversations on a wide range of topics.

Inspired by the community building efforts of McMaster students with disabilities, and in response to provincial accessibility legislation, the Equity and Inclusion Office invites staff and faculty who personally identify with disability-related issues to join the already-established Employee Accessibility Network!
