- 3.1 The College will make efforts to ensure that all members of the Humber Community can use washrooms with safety, privacy and dignity, regardless of their gender identity or gender expression. All members of the Humber Community may choose to use any accessible all-gender washroom, regardless of their reason(s) for doing so.
- 3.2 The College will make available maps indicating the location of every accessible all-gender washroom that is on campus.
