Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

As community arts educators, we have a responsibility to prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion as a crucial part of our work to ensure that our programming:

• helps all children experience interactions that nurture their full range of social, emotional, cognitive, physical, and linguistic abilities;
• presents a curriculum and programming that is bias-free and reflects and models fundamental principles of fairness and justice;
• is delivered by teaching artists who are skilled in the delivery of culturally-responsive pedagogy and who value all children for who they are and what they bring to our community of learners.
