Diversity Resources

This is a living document and not an exhaustive list.  Please send any suggestions of links relating to diversity, inclusion, and equity (preferable from University/Cooperative Extension sites) to Justin at: [email protected]

Any group or subject that is not represented on this current list is not left off intentionally.  At the time of the last update, we were not aware of links that existed or were acceptable for our NEAFCS membership, but we welcome ANY suggestions for additional links/resources that you would like to share.  Diversity is a continuum, and there is always room for more growth and more knowledge.
