SEMPERVIRENS FUND'S COMMITMENT TO PEOPLE AND EQUITY
"We believe redwoods and their interconnected ecosystems should be accessible to all people. We acknowledge historical and systemic inequities–including the forcible removal of indigenous peoples from the lands we protect and the historic, systemic exclusion of people of color from land ownership. We envision a day when public spaces feel welcoming and safe for everyone. We align our actions to our commitments by reimagining power structures–ensuring that our leadership is diverse and reflective of the communities we serve. We hire and cultivate people with deep commitments to equity and justice, and we engage the communities most impacted by our decisions in the decision-making process. We are building a comprehensive strategy to bring the organization's commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Justice (DEIJ) to life."
