We will advocate for establishing and protecting policies, practices, and legislation that promote, provide, or facilitate equitable access to marginalized communities, families, or individuals, regardless of race, age, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability.

We will lead by example as an agent of change by having an inclusive organization, ensuring we have a diverse workforce at all levels, and leveraging our circle of influence to drive a positive impact in our community.
