Pledges:

• Leadership and Accountability – We commit to reporting annually  to our Board about how the organization is doing achieving its goals toward inclusivity.
• Governance – We will ensure that all interview panels and final applicant pools for new positions are not single gender, continue to use a hiring process that does not use gendered advertising, and conduct exit interviews with all departing staff to understand why staff are leaving.
• Organizational Culture –We will  conduct a staff survey to monitor issues related to gender and report out to staff, and we commit to paying interns.
• Work-Life Balance – We have established parental leave/return and flex work time policies based on best practices and we do avoid calling meetings during evenings, weekends, early mornings, and public holidays to make it easier for those who provide care for others to participate.
