Embracing a Just, Diverse, Inclusive, and Equitable Learning Community

One of the University’s core values is respecting the dignity of the human person through openness to multiple viewpoints, personalized attention, and collaborative dialogue.

Holy Family continues its longstanding tradition of inclusion with the creation of a Justice, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (JDEI) team led by its Vice President for Mission Integration, Sister Rita Fanning, CSFN. 

The JDEI team addresses, supports, and guides the University regarding institutional initiatives in diversity, equity, and inclusion. As part of its first year of programming, the JDEI team hosted a Juneteenth event, giving all faculty and staff the opportunity for inward reflection. This event led the way for a series of events designed to further encourage conversation and exploration of key topics including implicit bias and equity versus equality.
