Board of Directors Approves Equity Statement

On 星期二, 九月份 20, 2022, the Clackamas Soil and Water Conservation District Board of Directors voted to approve a District Equity Statement.  The development of the following statement was a collaborative effort which included all District staff and board members.

As the District begins it’s strategic planning process, this statement will be used as a lens through which all District goals and programs will be evaluated.

This Equity Statement is both subject to and expected to change as the District continues to reflect on issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion, both within the organization and in it’s relationships with partner organizations and members of our community.

Clackamas SWCD Equity Statement

克拉克马斯水土保持区是一个以合作为基础和动力的组织。我们与重要的多元化社区和合作伙伴的关系为我们提供了通过倾听和理解来实践公平和包容的机会。我们相信，只有当所有身份的人都参与进来时，才有可能建立一个具有复原力的生态系统。对于我们的组织来说，至关重要的是将包容和公平原则融入到各个层面的保护工作中，而这些原则往往不是保护工作的核心。

作为一个历来由白人领导的组织，我们致力于利用我们的权力和特权，为创建一个公正、公平和包容的保护社区尽自己的一份力量。

我们保护、养护和恢复属于所有人的共有自然资源。我们相信，强大的环境和文化多样性是所有在克拉克马斯县生活、工作或娱乐的人的健康所不可或缺的。
