Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
The Center of Excellence for Children, Families, and the Law has a longstanding commitment to welcome and serve our whole community. We offer all people high quality, culturally responsive services while honoring race, religion, national origin, ethnicity, age, sex and fluidity of gender, sexual orientation, disability, socio-economic, immigration, or veteran status. Our staff strives to support and protect all people in an atmosphere that respects differences of all kinds. We believe it is the responsibility of the Center's staff, partners, and clients to work toward greater inclusion, multiculturalism, racial justice, and equity.
