Supporting, educating, empowering, and advocating for LGBTQIA+ individuals and groups in the Roanoke region

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at the Roanoke Diversity Center

The Roanoke Diversity Center is committed to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment in all aspects of our work. We welcome and value individuals of all races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, abilities, socioeconomic backgrounds, religions, and other identities.

We actively work to identify and dismantle barriers that limit access to resources, support, and opportunities for LGBTQ+ individuals and other historically marginalized communities. Through our programs, partnerships, and advocacy, we strive to create a safe and affirming space where all community members can participate fully, contribute their voices, and thrive.

In all hiring, programming, and organizational practices, we uphold principles of equity and inclusion, ensuring that diversity is reflected in leadership, staff, volunteers, and the communities we serve.
