We are not a training agency!
We offer education to achieve the impact that we want to see in society.
What is 'D.E.I.+B'?
Diversity: representation
Representation refers to the basic idea that if children see people who look like them reflected in marketing, course materials, community leadership- they are more likely to identify with and be able to imagine themselves as belonging in the field.
Equity: eliminating barriers
Equity ensures everyone has access to the same treatment, opportunities, and advancement. Equity aims to identify and eliminate barriers that prevent the full participation of some groups.
Inclusion: belonging
The social ties that accompany a sense of belonging are a protective factor helping people manage stress and other behavioral issues. When feel we feel supported, individuals feel less alone, we are more resilient, often coping more effectively with difficult times in life.
