Equity Statement in Action
We engage in DEIB work across three pillars of practice and policy: Our Team, Children and Families, and Our Community.
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging
Our Team
We are committed to building and supporting a diverse workforce, which means meaningfully incorporating DEIB into all practices and policies that support employees, job candidates, interns, and volunteers. This includes applying an equity lens to the recruitment, training, evaluation, and compensation of our team, as well as sustaining a culture of inclusion and belonging.
Children & Families
We strive to find new and improved ways to align our DEIB values into practice with clients and families. We do this to ensure that we are meeting the cultural, clinical, and therapeutic needs of our clients who come from all different backgrounds, identities, and lived experiences. This includes continuous review of our outreach, intake, therapeutic, education, and feedback processes.
Community
We are intentional about strengthening our relationships with external stakeholders, including learning from and giving back to the people that make up our community. This includes meaningful engagement with local businesses, neighborhood residents, partners, collaboratives, and leaders.
