VI. Inclusion Advisory Council

Mission: CREA’s Inclusion Advisory Council (IAC) welcomes and advocates for everyone by fostering a culture of belonging, acknowledging unique but equal perspectives, and respecting differences to better serve and support employees, clients and communities. The IAC leads the way through open discussion, education and action opportunities that drive and support social impact programming, recruitment strategy, and diversity and inclusion goals.

Vision: An organization where everyone belongs.

Values: Advocacy / Community / Culture / Leadership / Respect

Overview Inclusion Advisory Council consists of 10 employees, two co-chairs and an executive sponsor who are dedicated to sharing insights and perceptions of what it personally feels like to work at CREA, how current initiatives are progressing from their viewpoint, and what they think would be good for your workplace to prioritize for internal and external initiatives. They generate ideas, share their lived experience, evangelize DEI initiatives and conversations within the broader company, and can run DEI programming. Each member must sit on at least one working group, which include: Social Impact, Representation & Brand, Engagement & Belonging, and Business Impact. The working groups were originated based on key goals and objectives to ensure CREA is growing and developing in creating a culture where employees feel they are:

• Respected • Supported • Safe • Belong • Heard
