Our Commitment to Equity and an End to Systemic Racism

The Family Resource Center Association stands in solidarity with our Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) communities to promote Equity and end the systemic, institutional racism present in our society.   While we have much to learn on these issues, it is clear that our Mission is impacted by systemic racism.  To be silent about these injustices is to be complicit.   We must and will learn to better incorporate Equity throughout our work and be a source and advocate of systemic change.

Our staff and board are committed to building and supporting thriving, safe, and equitable communities for all people in Colorado.  We are committed to learning more about infusing Equity throughout our work with you, our supporters and the wider community as our partners.  As a key network in Colorado’s nonprofit sector, we feel it is our duty to advocate for racial justice and systemic change as we do this work.

Together, we can create better and more equitable communities.  We will continue to share our journey with you as we learn more about building Equity into our work.

Mark Kling, Executive Director
