Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

At RNS, our concepts of diversity, equity, and inclusion are rooted in the idea of pluralism, which we define in the following way: 
 
RNS is committed to creating a culture of mutual respect, understanding, and learning amongst people who self-identify in different ways. We strive to function with greater peace and productivity while preserving individuality. To promote social justice, special attention must be paid to those who are unfairly marginalized and we must change systems and structures that contribute to oppression.
