Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging

Diversity Statement

The School of Social Work strives to be a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment where everyone is welcome and provided the opportunity to belong. We reject a world in which people are denied the benefits of full participation by virtue of their race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, age, gender, (dis)ability, caste and/or social class. We welcome the free exchange of ideas and encourage collaborative efforts in building an environment that respects and honors all. These efforts support our commitment to educate and prepare our students for ethical, antiracist and anti-oppressive practice that supports and promotes social justice and human rights in a global and diverse society.
