G.R.A.C.E. Guide to Resources for Annual Campus Events Diversity Guide - National Convention NACA® Statement on Diversity Diversity is an attribute and a goal. As an attribute, diversity is ethnic identification/race, gender identity, disability, sexual orientation, age, religion, economic status and the many other aspects of our lives which define the family of humanity. As a goal, diversity refers to the intentional valuing, respecting and inclusion of all peoples. NACA recognizes the diversity of all its members and supports the development and implementation of programs and services that achieve this goal. Diversity Initiatives Collaboration In support of NACA’s Statement on Diversity, the Diversity Initiatives Coordinators for all regions collaborated this year to produce Diversity Guides in each region that highlight diversity programs and activities offered by associate members who are exhibiting at the various regional conferences. This guide is modeled after previous efforts by Diversity Initiatives Coordinators in the Mid Atlantic and Northern Plains regions and is replicated here for the National Convention. All conference delegates who have an interest in bringing diversity programs to their campuses are encouraged to review the programs listed in the guide prior to attending the National Convention and then to visit the agencies in the Campus Activities Marketplace (CAMP). Each program listed provides the name of the agency, booth location, contact information, price range, and a brief overview of the program. As a convenience while at the Convention, delegates may also access this information in NACA® All Access. 2 Program Title/Artist: Hari Kondabolu Program Title/Artist: I.N.K.
