Diversity Policy
In principle and in practice, NARC&DC values and seeks diverse
and inclusive participation within RC&D councils nationwide. NARC&DC
will promote involvement and expand access to leadership opportunity
regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, religion, age, sexual
orientation, nationality, disability, appearance, geographic
location, or professional level.
The association will provide leadership and training resources to
accomplish this objective while serving as a model to our member
councils.
The association also encourages all member councils:
- To have an aggressive outreach plan that encourages eligible
females and minorities to become Council members and to receive
council services.
- To serve their whole community
- To review their organizational structure and eliminate
barriers to membership which hinder diversity.
- To include a proposed outreach plan in their Area Plan.
- To hold public council meetings with advance announcements and
to use meeting facilities accessible to disabled members of the
public.
- To adopt non-discrimination policy and non-discrimination
statements on all public council documents.
- To develop appropriate educational opportunities for all
council members to understand the diversity needs of the council
and the communities it serves.
Statement of Non-Discrimination
All programs and services of the RC&D Councils are offered on a
non-discriminatory basis, without regard to race, color, national
origin, religion, sex, sexual orientation, age, marital or family
status, disability or political beliefs.
