LSS acknowledges racial and ethnic differences because of the profound impact they have on individuals, groups, communities, and society. To foster an organizational culture that is cognizant of race and ethnicity, we will engage in honest and respectful conversations about the role of race and culture in the work we do. We will hold ourselves accountable for continual improvement in working toward racial equity. We will advocate for solutions to the social injustices that result from systemic racism. We invite you to join us on this journey.
