Diversity
Mulitple aspects of our people's identities, including but not limited to race, ethnicity, creed, gender and gender identity, sexual orientation, generation, social class, (dis)ability status, learning styles, life experiences, religion/spirituality, national origin, military/veteran status and political perspective.
, 
Inclusion
Deliberate action(s) that removes systemic barriers, provides equal access to information, opportunities, resources, and advancement for all our people, and ensures a psychologically safe work environment where each person is heard, supported, and respected for their unique background, experience, and perspectives.
, 
Belonging
Feeling of support, acceptance, and appreciation—the extent to which our people can bring their whole selves to work and be able to do their best work without having to sacrifice meaningful aspects of their identity.
, and 
Equity
Fair and just practices. Acknowledging and addressing structural inequalities that advantage some and disadvantage others and that each person comes from different circumstances with different needs to succeed. Identifying and eliminating barriers that have prevented the full participation of some groups and providing equal access to opportunities for all.
