Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
DEI Practice Headline
Our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion practice develops and implements plans to effectively engage people who are historically marginalized, underserved, disproportionately impacted, and seldom heard. This includes people affected by racism, bias, poverty, limited-English proficiency, disability, and immigration. Our practitioners lead with cultural humility and employ lenses of equity and inclusion to guide our work from start to finish.
