Equity And Diversity

Our Equity & Diversity Pledge

Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, all Equity Council meetings have been suspended. Please check back July 2021 for updated information.

Clackamas Workforce Partnership recognizes that equity, diversity, and inclusion are an active process that requires constant commitment. We will continuously strive to reach this vision through aligning services, cultivating collaborative partnerships, supporting community development, and engaging multiple perspectives and voices.

Our Vision

Every person benefits from fulfilling employment, living wage, and a thriving business community.

Our Commitment

Clackamas Workforce Partnership is committed to building an effective workforce system which values diversity and fosters inclusion, and where every individual in Clackamas County has access to the resources, skills, and opportunities to reach their goals. We recognize that the resources and opportunities necessary to access living-wage jobs have not been evenly distributed in our region, which contributes to the cycle of poverty and injustice.

We are committed to working with business and industry leaders to develop and support an inclusive community with a vibrant economy and an equitable workforce system that meets the needs of Clackamas County.
