Description

This poster highlights the Diversity & Inclusion Blueprint developed by AUCD for the UCEDD and LEND networks. The Blueprint provides 14 objectives and related implementable strategies in support of increasing diversity, inclusion, and cultural and linguistic competence in personnel, training, service, and research. Strategies are offered for each of three audiences: AUCD network members (UCEDDs and LENDs), AUCD Central Office, and our federal funders (AIDD and MCHB).
