what we believe in
The Kinship Collaborative values inclusivity and seeks to support, serve and celebrate all couples, families and their love, across gender identity, sexual orientation, ability, race, and religion. While we seek to be allies, we are also aware that unconscious implicit bias exists, and we may not get it right from time to time. Further, we acknowledge that gendered, heteronormative language and assumptions abound in the wedding, marriage, childbirth and parenting space, including in words like "bride," "groom," “mom,” “dad,” etc. We are committed to educating ourselves, taking feedback, engaging in difficult conversations, and including diverse voices to ensure that The Kinship Collaborative is a safe, loving space for all.
