DEA&I Committee Mission Statement
TEA is committed to advancing, cultivating, and preserving a vibrant culture of diversity, inclusion, and belonging that extends to an authentic community of mutual respect where members can ignite creativity through our shared differences.
DEA&I Committee Accomplishments to Date
Every area of the TEA is affected by DEA&I. With that, we want to be sure that our efforts are concentrated on the right initiatives. To begin with we have focused on branding, marketing, and event planning to be sure that an inclusive environment is cultivated and our marketing materials are reflected of that. Additionally, updating our governance to modernize our policies is a current goal we are also working on.
