Commitment to Race Equity
Our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion is embedded in our organizational DNA.
What Sets Us Apart
At Scale for Change, we are resolutely committed to race equity, recognizing that diversity and inclusion are essential values that shape our organizational culture and drive our mission. We firmly believe that everyone deserves equal opportunities, respect, and dignity, regardless of their race, ethnicity, or cultural background. Our commitment to race equity is deeply ingrained in every aspect of our work, and we continuously strive to address disparities and systemic barriers that have historically marginalized individuals and communities. We understand that achieving true equity requires a comprehensive approach that not only acknowledges the past injustices but actively works towards dismantling them and building a more just and inclusive future. At Scale for Change, we understand that promoting race equity is not a one-time project but an enduring commitment. Together, we stand firm in our resolve to create a world where every individual, regardless of their race, can flourish and contribute to a brighter, more equitable future for all.
Scale for Change is led by a diverse senior team of a majority of people of color, immigrants, queer people, and femmes. This representation is also reflected in our overall staff makeup. At Scale for Change, we are proud of our active commitment to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace and culture. We believe that embracing diversity in all its forms, including but not limited to race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, disability, religion, and socioeconomic background, is the right thing to do and essential for our success.
Our commitment to DEI is embedded in our core values and influences every aspect of our organization, from hiring and talent management to decision-making processes and community engagement. We strive to create an environment where everyone feels respected, valued, and empowered to contribute their unique perspectives and experiences. Scale for Change understands that creating a truly equitable workplace requires ongoing effort and dedication, and we are committed to making positive change within our organization and in the communities we serve.
