We are committed to a diverse workforce that welcomes various perspectives, <br />experiences,and backgrounds. We believe that DEI in teams, decision-making, policy, <br />practice, and operations contributes to a sense of belonging that benefits our culture, <br />staff,patients,and community. At PPSAT, we are dedicated to learning, reducing and <br />eliminating inequities, and developing best practices to dismantle systemic racism <br />and the complex problems caused by it. <br />PPSAT’s CEO created a Building Equity and Accountability (BEA) working group of <br />staff members from across the organization to help make a set of recommendations <br />to leadership on how to facilitate honest and fearless dialogue that identifies the race <br />equity issues at PPSAT. <br />Students who have previously participated in evidence-based programs can join a <br />group of alumni. The Triangle educator meets with alumni regularly to discuss <br />opportunities for further engagement. Alumni often assist with implementing the <br />program for future participants. This allows former participants to inform the <br />program’s implementation.For example,if students feel they want more information <br />on consent or menstruation (as they have expressed in the past),the educator pivots <br />to providing more factual and engaging information to them.Alumni can then help <br />disseminate this information to their peers. As they learn,develop,and hone their <br />skills,alumni of multi-session education programs become the next generation of <br />Planned Parenthood leaders, making a meaningful difference in their community <br />through service projects,educational presentations,and advocacy. Additionally, there <br />is a comment/suggestion box at all multi-session program sessions for current <br />participants to provide feedback. <br />Exhibit A <br />Docusign Envelope ID: 9B12EC66-D23F-408C-BE60-EBCDE242CC54
