DAVA PUBLIC STATEMENT AGAINST RACISM:

Tolerating Racism IS Racism and it will have no place within our organization. 

We recognize that the force of systemic and institutionalized racism, stereotyping, micro-aggressions,  prejudice and bias can often undermine good efforts and present challenges to organizations, recruitment, and teamwork.These attitudes can affect decisions and interactions within organizations--but there is no place for within DAVA. Not within our policies... Not within our communication... Not within our membership.

DAVA will continue to cultivate a diverse, multicultural, and inclusive membership; and create an environment where all members--regardless of race, color, age, gender, sexual orientation, religion, national origin or disabilities--know they are valued.  DAVA will support peaceful protests as part of everyone’s Constitutional right.
