Today, we launched a new page on our website, one focused on sharing our diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) journey. In this fiscal year, the OMNI Institute is initiating efforts to formally and systematically integrate diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout our organization, and throughout and thereafter, to institutionalize and sustain practices that reflect an understanding of DEI as intrinsic to every aspect of our work - who we are, what we do, and how and why we do it.

Funded by the Telligen Community Initiative, the Toolkit supports public health departments in generating a shared understanding of health equity within the organization, creating an organizational commitment to improving equity, and institutionalizing health equity practices.  This toolkit builds off the work of many existing resources, for which the OMNI Institute and partners are grateful.  We are humbled to contribute this toolkit to the field of equity and hope it may inspire others who will build onto it in the future.
