OUR PROGRAMS Collective Action Sustainable progress is best accomplished by people working together to achieve common goals. Diversity Workplace justice is an intersectional movement. It is necessary to embrace voices from a range of different social, racial and ethnic backgrounds, gender and sexual orientations, ages, geographies, life experiences, economic backgrounds, etc. Justice All people deserve equal treatment under the law, in their workplace, and in American society. Equity All efforts toward workplace justice must be rooted in the knowledge that current and historical factors have created unequal circumstances throughout America. Education Everyone deserves access to high quality education that empowers them to become agents for social progress. Dignity All people inherently deserve to be treated fairly and respectfully.
