Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and
Inclusion
Easton Area Community Center is an organization focused on
addressing the critical needs of our community. We are made up of individuals of all ages, from all walks of life, working side-by-side to strengthen our vision and mission. Together, we strive
to ensure that everyone, regardless of ability, age, cultural background, ethnicity, faith, gender, gender expression, gender identity, ideology, income, national origin, race or sexual orientation
has the opportunity to reach their full potential with dignity.
Our vision
is for every person to use their unique experiences and backgrounds, together – to spark
solutions that create a better, healthier world and foster the development and well-being of our community members.
Our culture
is the result of our behaviors, our personal commitment, our curiosity, how
we collaborate, and the ways that we share our perspectives and encourage others to do the same.
We are committed to being an inclusive, anti-racist organization and leveraging our collective impact to address social
inequities.
Diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) are not just words – they are the reason we
are able to deliver on our commitment to our members and our community. We foster a diverse workforce and organization where employees and members feel comfortable bringing their unique
perspectives and participating in our programs.
But diversity and equity is only half of the story; inclusion is just as important.
Inclusion means a sense of belonging. When our employees and members know they are valued and crucial to our mission, not only will they thrive, but our organization will, too and most importantly
the members we serve will be inspired, connect and grow.
We strive to create and include diversity, equity, and inclusion practices at the center of our daily work.
We commit to using these practices for our organization, members and our communities.
