Racial Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion

Join DCYF in recognizing Indigenous Peoples’ Day on Monday, Oct. 12. Indigenous Peoples’ Day recognizes that Native people are the first inhabitants of the Americas, including the lands that later became the United States. Falling on the same day as Columbus Day, Indigenous Peoples’ Day encourages Americans to rethink and reevaluate our nation’s history.

DCYF has expanded the Language Access Services Team and team members have been hard at work drafting a Language Access Plan (LAP). The goal of the Plan is to promote equity and inclusion and offer language access services in a consistent manner across all DCYF divisions and offices.
