GT Squared - Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at CIDI

GT Squared is a voluntary committee of CIDI employees coming together to help forward CIDI's mission of inclusion, equity, and diversity. We will work to increase awareness of and resistance to inequity, to make CIDI a place that reflects the people we serve and allows everyone to be their true self, to encourage dialogue, and to share resources with people within our organization who experienced discrimination.
