Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee Purpose Statement
The Woodland Community College Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee is established to cultivate the active, intentional, and ongoing engagement with diversity in ways that increase awareness, content knowledge, cognitive sophistication, and empathetic understanding of the complex ways individuals interact with systems and institutions. (Association of American Colleges & Universities)
The WCC DEI Committee will provide guidance and feedback on WCC’s growth process as it relates to culture and climate, equity education and skills, and grounding strategies (See WCC Perception of Cultural Assets Report) in our collective effort to support the forward movement of WCC’s process of diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice. The DEI Committee will place an intentional focus on how to address the racial disparity (gaps) in outcomes and eliminate institutional barriers for our disproportionately impacted student communities.
The WCC DEI Committee’s purpose encompasses the Yuba Community College District’s commitment to a safe learning environment that promotes diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice for all our students, staff, and faculty in our Woodland, Colusa County, and Lake County communities.
