Diversity and Inclusion
Throughout our school community, we share a commitment to fostering a culture where differences are valued, and interactions are free of bias. At Gina’s Kids First Cdc, we are committed to developing the whole child including their unique identities, abilities, backgrounds, and point of view to make a difference and have a positive impact. We want our employees, teachers, and each child in our care to be comfortable sharing their authentic self. That’s why it is important for us to ensure a wide range of diverse voices being recognized and represented. Through this initiative, we will creatively share different perspectives and talk about the importance of respecting the unique qualities of each person and family. Our strength comes from the diversity of our team members and their unique perspectives. The result is a safe, inclusive environment where all team members thrive. Together, we work hard to celebrate diversity, embrace our community, and create a sense of belonging where everyone thrives.
