Our Equity Journey
Our equity, diversity, and inclusion mission is to build an engaged and representative FRCA Network that recognizes the importance of social, economic, health, language, and racial justice. We strive to promote diversity and equity – and to be a model of inclusive excellence. We will support our EDI development and sustainability efforts by providing technical assistance, identifying needs, training, advocacy, resources, partnership opportunities, and ongoing evaluation.
Our Call to Action
To ensure FRCA is an inclusive Network dedicated to developing policies, practices, and
procedures that progress justice, the following is our plan to advance EDI:
Pursue deliberate efforts to ensure that FRCA is a place where differences are welcomed, perspectives are affirmed, and our network fosters a sense of belonging.
Offer continuous EDI professional development and capacity-building sessions for FRCA Network. EDI commitment is being shared.
Sharing tools and resources with the FRCA Network.
Recruit and retain a diverse FRCA Network.
Recognize, address, and eradicate all forms of organizational and network inequities.
Continue to develop and enact equitable policies, practices, and procedures.
Integrate EDI throughout the organizational culture and day-to-day operations.
Continuous assessment and evaluation of EDI efforts.
Leverage our partnerships, relationships, and resources to promote equity and justice.
Our Equity Committee
The purpose of the Justice, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion Committee is to formalize FRCA’s EDI Commitment and Call to Action to integrate and elevate principles of equity, belonging justice, and diversity across the Network.
Thank you to the Colorado School of Public Health’s Center for Public Health Practice for providing expert guidance and resources for our equity journey.
