Our commitment

Intentional diversity

We practice intentional diversity by increasing access to The Beacon for members of marginalized communities who want to be involved as staff, board members, volunteers, or residents. We believe we are a stronger, more effective team because of our diversity, and we will do the work to uncover and remedy any experiences or systems that disadvantage someone because of their race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, or veteran status.

Empowered women empower generations.
