Introducing the Diversity and Inclusion Task Force

In January 2020, NTMN formed a Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) Task Force
to address the consensus for change, and to ask these critical questions:
Who are we as an organization, and who do we represent? The task force
identified a distinct lack of diversity and inclusion within the NTMN
membership and in a June statement committed itself to providing strategic
steps to enact substantial, long-lasting change within our organization. To
begin this process, the task force researched, created and established
guiding principles related to equality, diversity and inclusion, and
formulated actionable plans that will allow us to evaluate our progress.
After several months of work, the NTMN D&I Task Force now presents the
revised NTMN Mission Statements for Diversity and Inclusion.

Statements
We acknowledge that these vital changes will take time and steadfast
commitment, and that they may be uncomfortable. We request that all
NTMN members give this plan and its proposed changes their full support.
We value and seek your input. Meaningful change will take ALL of us to
move forward towards a better, more just organization that fully represents
and serves the community we live in.
