Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
The UWCFD is dedicated to a future where all people are valued, and inclusive and equitable practices are embedded in the culture of who we are.
At the University of Washington, diversity is integral to excellence. We value and honor diverse experiences and perspectives, strive to create welcoming and respectful environments, and promote access, opportunity and justice for all.
We recognize that not being racist is not enough. We must be actively anti-racist, and we commit to doing so.
We invite you to look at these resources and explore programs and opportunities. If you are looking for an organization and you don’t see it, contact us. We are happy to work with any eligible non-profit to add them to the UWCFD and our resource lists.
