SCI-Arc's Equity and Inclusion Committee is comprised of staff, faculty, and student representatives who work to promote equity, inclusion, and belonging for the SCI-Arc community. The committee meets regularly to reflect on areas in need of improvement, share best practices, and facilitate the implementation of policies and programs that promote an equitable, accessible, and inclusive educational environment for all students and employees, with particular attention to those from historically marginalized communities (Black, Indigenous, Latinx; Asian/Asian American and Pacific Islander; LGBTQ individuals; women; veterans; and people with disabilities).
