Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

At BCARES, we appreciate the importance of creating an environment in which everyone feels valued, included and empowered to bring great ideas to the table.  This statement is a vehicle to adopt and abide by a set of values and offer a commitment to improve diversity in our organizations.   Here at BCARES we believe that a commitment to diversity and inclusion is essential to reflect the society we serve today.  Amateur radio seeks to actively improve equality and diversity, and to benefit creatively and commercially from the inclusion of a diverse range of innovative creative and business talent.  It helps our industry to understand and meet our served communities’ needs more effectively.  Accordingly, we  will:

• Strive to achieve best practice in recruitment and retention, recruiting from a wide talent pool 
• Improve equality and diversity at senior decision making levels. Identify talented individuals and help them to make progress in their volunteering efforts.
• Work together to develop and adopt future policies and practices that support the implementation of the aims of this statement
• Participate in activities that promote equality and diversity in the amateur radio hobby
