Diversity - Equity - Inclusion
UpRooted Dance Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Statement
We at UpRooted Dance believe that dance is not limited to any one community. For us, diversity and inclusion enable the dance community, and the community at large, to absorb new styles of dance and new perspectives for artistic expression.
As we grow in size and scope, we are committed to attracting and retaining diverse staff, performers, and volunteers, and we will honor your experiences, perspectives and unique identity. Together, our community strives to create and maintain working and learning environments that are inclusive, equitable and welcoming. We acknowledge and honor the fundamental value and dignity of all individuals.
We make two key pledges in pursuit of diversity and inclusion in the dance community. First, we pledge ourselves to creating and maintaining an environment that respects diverse traditions, heritages, and experiences. Second, we pledge to conduct outreach into a variety of communities for volunteers, performers, partners, and performances.
We believe every member on our team enriches our diversity by exposing us to a broad range of ways to understand and engage with the world, identify challenges, and to help and enrich our community. This, in turn, helps us bring more compelling dance exposure to our community.
Our ultimate goal for our growing nonprofit is to have our membership, participants, and audience mirror the incredibly diverse DMV area.
