The mission of Jer's Vision: Canada's Youth Diversity Initiative (the Jeremy Dias Foundation) is to support youth who are addressing issues of discrimination in their schools and communities. Discrimination is still a major problem in Canada, and youth are part of the solution. The potential of youth is all too often overlooked, and we want to change that.
Jer's Vision seeks to support youth through programs and services that are open to everyone.

A relay run to raise awareness, education,and money that will start in Vancouver, BC, and Halifax, NS and end in Toronto, ON. The run will be broken down into segments/legs, stopping in as many towns/cities along the way. We will try and run along the new Trans Canada Trail as possible. It will be a constant run each day with breaks in major towns/cities for guest speakers, rallies, media events, etc. The exact route has not yet been determined. The date has not yet been determined, but the plans on for 2009
