Diversity
Tool Kit
The
Action plan was created in response
to the Board’s
ongoing concern that ACSA membership lacked
diversity in its membership and
leadership and charged the Equity, Achievement
and Diversity for Success (EADS)
Committee to address the issue. The
Diversity Action Plan was approved by the Board
in May 2006 and touched on six
specific areas:
Training
– building cultural competency to help
administrators understand the issues
associated with diversity and the barriers to
access that certain groups
encounter.
Mentoring
– develop a mentoring support program for new
administrators of
color.
Internal
leadership – equip members of color to take
leadership roles within the
organization.
Recruitment
& Retention – implement strategies that
specifically increase recruitment of
minority administrators through ACSA’s statewide
membe3rship campaign and
increasing retention rates for ALL members
(regardless of ethnicity) by
providing engaging opportunities for involvement
at both the local and state
levels.
Data
– collect and analyze data to inform the
organization of current membership
gaps.
Results will help shape
ACSA’s direction on membership
development.
Communication
– increase awareness of issues regarding
membership diversity and ACSA’s efforts
to promote equity in standards-based
system.
