ASPO Diversity & Inclusion Statement

ASPO Inc is a diverse and inclusive organization.

When an association values differences and creates a welcoming environment – one that is comfortable, inclusive, and empowering – they open the door for innovation, increased participation and an elevated sense of community and belonging for all.

Diversity may be defined in many ways, including but not limited to individual characteristics such as age, color, culture, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, race, national origin, physical ability, political beliefs, religion/spirituality, sexual orientation, marital status/partnership, language preference, socio-economic status, professional choices and other facets of social diversity. Inclusion reflects the degree to which all members, staff, and board are included as integral and welcomed participants in the organization.

ASPO Inc is committed to upholding these values and welcomes communication from anyone who believes these values are not being upheld either by the organization or any members of its community. Further we pledge to review and respond to all communications.
