Inclusion and Diversity Statement

Inclusion and Diversity Statement

Our coworkers have come together to articulate our Home’s beliefs and intentions around inclusion and diversity.

At Mercy Home, we are not all the same, but we share a common mission. Because we recognize there are groups of people who are disproportionately affected by the injustices of our society, we endeavor to create a culture that reflects and respects the identities of all co-workers and the communities we serve. We want all who walk through our doors to feel seen, represented, valued, and included. 

• We will do the work that’s required to build a sense of unity. 
• We will engage in decision-making that values open dialogue, active listening, and learning from one another’s perspectives. 
• We will actively promote the skills and expertise of all co-workers.
• We will stand up and speak out, even if it means getting comfortable with being uncomfortable. 
• We will pair our words with our actions. 
• We will assume good intentions, listen with patience and empathy, and act with common purpose.
