The purpose of the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Subcommittee is to advance strategies and actions to the board of directors, committees, and workgroups that create opportunities for people from diverse backgrounds, including those with lived experience in homelessness to participate throughout the Continuum of Care structure.
The subcommittee recommends, coordinates, and implements the kinds of support systems, training, and tools the Continuum of Care would need to provide to ensure a positive, meaningful, and welcoming experience; and helps develop partnerships with organizations effectively doing diversity, equity, and inclusion work.
The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Subcommittee is a subcommittee of the CoC Collaborative Committee. The DEI Subcommittee chair is Jesse Lippold-Peone, jesse@blumre.com.
