PEARLENE CLUNIS BIOGRAPHY

Pearlene Clunis is a Canadian advocate for diversity, inclusion, and social justice, with a career rooted in personal resilience and a lifelong appreciation for cultural diversity. Born in Osoyoos, British Columbia, and raised in the small towns of Minitonas and Moosehorn, Manitoba, her early life was enriched by her parents’ welcoming spirit, hosting international visitors in their home. These experiences exposed her to a wide array of cultures and instilled a deep commitment to inclusivity.

Navigating various life transitions throughout her childhood, Pearlene Clunis developed a strong sense of adaptability and resilience. Her passion for understanding and celebrating cultural differences ultimately guided her into the fashion industry, where Pearlene Clunis established her own business and achieved international acclaim as an award-winning designer. Throughout her fashion career, Pearlene Clunis found herself increasingly drawn to advocating for women’s rights, particularly focusing on marginalized and vulnerable women. This advocacy has since become central to her life’s purpose.

Her dedication to diversity and inclusion also extends into literature. Alongside her husband, Devon Clunis—the first Black Chief of Police in Canadian history—Pearlene Clunis co-authored children’s books promoting inclusivity and respect for cultural heritage. Their debut book, The Little Boy from Jamaica, shares Devon’s journey from his childhood in Jamaica to his groundbreaking role in Canadian law enforcement. Following this, Pearlene Clunis authored The Little Girl from Osoyoos, inspired by her own childhood. The book encourages readers to appreciate the diversity of their communities, exploring themes of unity and cultural understanding through the eyes of a young Canadian girl who meets people from around the world.

Beyond her work as an author, Pearlene Clunis is a highly sought-after speaker and workplace consultant, known for her insights on personal growth, leadership, and inclusivity. Her presentations and workshops across Canada empower individuals and organizations to create environments where everyone feels valued and respected. Her passion for diversity advocacy is evident not only in her professional endeavors but also in her community work, where she leads initiatives aimed at fostering cultural sensitivity and social awareness.

Her career and life embody a deep commitment to building a more inclusive society. Through her work in fashion, literature, consulting, and community service, she continues to inspire others to embrace diversity and work toward a more equitable world. Her story is one of transformation, resilience, and dedication to social good, reflecting her unwavering belief in the power of inclusivity.
