Our Commitment to Our Caring Adults
Resources for Our Caring Adults 
As of June 1, 2023

• We’ve invested time and resources to review and change policies to ensure inclusivity.
• We continue to grow our professional learning library and other opportunities so that our caring adults can learn about DEI in multiple ways.

• We added an accessibility widget to our website to improve viewing capabilities for our visually impaired users.
