YMCA of the Inland Northwest Diversity, Equity, Inclusion Statement
The YMCA of the Inland Northwest and Camp Reed commits to being an inclusive organization for all. Driven by our mission and values of Caring, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility we actively work to close equity gaps for marginalized and underserved groups. We are inspired to elevate social justice issues facing our community, remove systemic barriers, welcome cultural diversity, and create equity for those in greatest need. Through collaboration with our diverse community partners, we work to effect meaningful change. In all things, we are dedicated to ensuring our Y is a safe, welcoming place for all people to be, belong, and become.
We will not tolerate bias, hatred, or discrimination that leads to the oppression of individuals or communities as we fulfill our purpose to give everyone a safe place to learn, grow, and thrive.
YMCA Camp Reed Statement
YMCA Camp Reed celebrates, welcomes and affirms all campers, including those who are members of the LGBTQ+ community, and we honor and support each camper, staff, and volunteer as individuals. We believe that each young person should have the opportunity to safely engage in the outdoors, and we strive to create an inclusive environment where each camper is accepted for who they truly are. We will be respectful of the camper and transparent with the parent/guardian.
If you have questions about how we can best support you or your camper, please reach out to the Camp Reed Team.
