TPS Equity Strategy

Question 1

Our Vision is both inward looking – for our members, our leaders, and our organization – and outward looking – for our communities and our partners.

“_____” means that the changes we need to make must start from within. The way we treat and lead our members, the way we treat each other, address biases and stereotypes, and the structures we create to do our work influence how we engage with our communities and partners, how they perceive us and have confidence in us, and how we respond to the needs of the communities we serve.

“_____” represents the changes we need to make in how we interact with our communities and our partners and how we respond to their needs. We will continue to strengthen our understanding of the unique experiences of different communities and the organizations serving them; to acknowledge our past mistakes; to build on any past successes; and to listen to the voices historically silenced. As with all publicly funded institutions, we must deal with the consequences of inequities across all sectors, and our contribution to them. Only by working with other public service organizations, can we drive change across the entire system.
