Additional Culture Details
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Initiatives:
Many organizations say they value DEI but they don’t do the work. Mental health and family services are challenging enough without the disappointment you feel when employers give lip service to social justice. Wayside is the place where client care and social justice meet. We understand how much work is involved in making DEI a living, breathing reality in an organization. To demonstrate our commitment, we have two mission statements one for our core services and one dedicated to diversity, equity and inclusion. Wayside is a human service agency committed to anti-racism, social justice and advocacy.
