The goal of REC is to put into action our agency's belief that we will thrive as an organization when perspectives are diverse, our culture is inclusive, and our practices model the equity we want to see in the world. We create space for learning and engagement for all staff and consult with leadership and staff to ensure our best practices and outcomes reflect our beliefs.
