Our Mission

In line with 鶹ý’s goals to Inclusive excellence, the Peopleof Color (POC) Faculty and Staff Affinity Groupaims to create a supportive community oftraining, learning, advocacy and radical self-care for faculty, staff, andeducators of color. We use the umbrella term “people of color” intentionallywith the purpose of creating a broad space for all people who identify as members of racially and/or ethnically marginalized groups.

*We welcome and celebrate the nuances, differences, and shared experiences of our members, recognizing that navigating these complexities are the foundation of building authentic relationships, learning, and community. We welcome all who identify as folks of color- whether adoptees, multiracial, native born, refugees, and individuals with immigration status in North America (adapted from Yes! World API Jan2018).
