Our dedication to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Justice

At LISC, we work every day up to realize our commitment to racial equity in our communities and society, and to become a more antiracist organization. We embrace and uplift equity, diversity and inclusion across all races, ethnicities, genders, sexualities, abilities and geographies. We are committed to creating and supporting spaces and resources—both internally and externally—to help ensure that each person can thrive in their own identities, circumstances and histories, with the goal of upending disparities so we can all prosper and live with dignity.

A key part of this effort is LISC’s internal network of affinity groups—spaces for employees with shared backgrounds, identities and values to come together to talk, study, nurture solidarity and create solutions for the more equitable, just and dynamic environments we all want and deserve to work and live in.
