Our work in advancing and promoting racial equity, access, inclusion and belonging is fostered through stakeholders perspectives and participation to reshape, expand and transform cultural norms, build awareness and social understanding through various organization-wide learning modalities, frameworks and opportunities like listening circles, workshops, conferences, executive roundtables, activities and events that amplify our humanity and celebrate our diversity.
The goals are purpose-fueled to strengthen our mission focused work, curate understanding, uncover gaps and address in a systematic and comprehensive way – engendering equity, access, inclusion and belonging for BIPOC communities, our allies and partners to address the unconscious bias and racism reifies the status quo.
Our work is situated in the journey every individual and organization takes, to give context, deeper understanding and meaning to the collective experiences which is essential to making the organization’s commitment to real change, real impact and transformational progress to advance racial equity in our organizations and communities a reality.
