Our Position on Equity
We believe in the fair and just distribution of resources and opportunities needed to achieve wellbeing.
We engage with compassion to confront and dismantle oppression interpersonally, institutionally, and systemically.
We commit to building a culture of equity and belonging.
After months of dedicated teamwork by several staff of Development Centers, we are proud to share our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Action Plan. This is a living document and will guide the activities of the DEI Committee and Development Centers’ intentional efforts to become a more equitable organization. Please check out our Action Plan below.
