Diversity statement
We strive to educate ourselves and others about the issues of a pluralistic society. We are committed to reaching beyond the views of individuals to value a community that appreciates and learns from each others' similarities and differences. Our services and programs will seek to create a safe environment that affirms the dignity and worth of each individual regardless of their differences.
We will set an example of commitment to embracing differences, including those differences that are not visually apparent. We will welcome and serve people regardless of gender, ethnicity, race, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, religion, socioeconomic status and physical and mental abilities. In addition, we encourage employers to maintain a similar standard of commitment to diversity.
