Glad Day Lit is committed to programming that reflects and amplifies diversity of identity. These questions are optional but to program a diverse series, they can be important to supplement the additional research we do on applicants.

What is your gender identity or identities? (Optional)

How would you name or describe your sexual identity? (Optional)

What are your cultural, religious or racialized identities? (Optional)

Is there anything else about your identity that we should know when we are building our program? We are committed to reflecting and honouring the diversity of our communities and we realize there are many layers and facets of identity that are too often invisible, ignored, excluded or overlooked.
