Smithfield Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Task Force
On April 20, 2021 the Smithfield Town Council created the Smithfield Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Task Force with a vision of a dynamic community embracing its future while respecting its past with core values of civility, sustainability, diversity, inclusivity through full participation, partnership, and resiliency as a guide to approaching the work of the Town.
- Approved Resolution creating the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Task Force (4/20/21)
Goals of the Smithfield Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Task Force are as follows:
- Engage with Smithfield residents, interest groups, and businesses to seek feedback on their experiences that can improve life in our community.
- Identify strategies that help the Town to be more inclusive in engaging our residents and businesses that will better promote unity, equality and understanding in Smithfield
- Work with a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Consultant to develop a comprehensive plan and long-term vision of diversity, equity and inclusion goals for the community. The plan should include methods of both short- and long-term monitoring and evaluation that consider several areas, including but not limited to policies and procedures, community partnership engagement and ongoing education.
- Present recommendation to the Smithfield Town Council on how to achieve the goals above.
- Subcommittees may be formed to focus on issues or subjects meriting more detailed discussion.
