WHO IS DEON?
The Diversity & Equal Opportunity Network (DEON) is a non profit led by a small yet powerful diverse team of professionals including Social sciences & humanities, education, research and business who are driven by passion to propel change. They use their individual expertise in their respective fields that align with DEONs mission and core values that strive above the non profit status quo.
DEON is dedicated to addressing racial disparities, social and economic equity for all in the community, educational establishments, services, corporate and business fields, government and non government entities. DEON achieves this by using the world's most powerful weapon- Education.
We are determined to plant seeds for sustainable healing by providing youth programs, adult training & workshops, resources, support, and cultural & racial awareness programs.
Here at DEON, we believe that it really does take a village to provide children and youth with a safe and positive environment that breaks harmful cycles perpetuated by history and inaction. The village we brought together is grounded in intersectionality and a lack of discrimination based on ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, gender, ability or class.
