4Children recognises that certain groups and individuals in our society continue to be discriminated against because of their race, nationality, colour, gender, disability, marital status, sexuality, creed, religion, language, culture, age, class, union activities, personal circumstances or because they are HIV positive.

4Children is strongly committed to positive action to remove and/or counter discrimination in all aspects of its work including that with other organisations, and in the services it provides for its members. We also attach a very high priority to encouraging and assisting our members to do the same.

4Children will positively encourage participation in all aspects of the organisations work from all sectors of the community and will be reflected in the specific areas of work including:

- Membership
- Employment Practice
- Outreach Work

No group in society will be discriminated against, although 4Children may develop projects that target specific groups which highlight areas where out of school care is poorly resourced.

The implementation of the 4Children Equal Opportunities Policy will be monitored and evaluated by the Equal Opportunities Committee and 4Children Management.
