DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) Consulting
At the heart of my DEI consulting services is a commitment to creating environments where everyone, especially fat and neurodivergent individuals, feels valued, respected, and included. I partner with organizations to go beyond the basic requirements of diversity compliance, helping them build spaces where all individuals are not just included, but empowered to thrive. My approach is grounded in the belief that true inclusion goes beyond mere representation. It involves actively nurturing and supporting the diverse identities within your organization, particularly those who are often overlooked or marginalized. Whether you're an educational institution, community organization, or workplace, my goal is to guide you in creating lasting, meaningful change that fosters an environment of respect, equity, and belonging for all.
What I Offer
Assessment & Audit. I offer a comprehensive assessment of your organization’s inclusivity, thoroughly reviewing your policies, practices, and procedures to identify any barriers that may prevent people from feeling fully included. By focusing on both physical and cultural aspects, I evaluate how your environment—whether physical, digital, or relational—impacts inclusivity. Special attention is given to neurodivergent and fat inclusivity, ensuring that all individuals feel valued and welcomed. Following the assessment, I provide practical, easy-to-implement solutions that empower you to create a truly inclusive space for everyone.
Policy & Change Consulting. Sustainable DEI change happens when an organization’s culture and policies are aligned. In this consulting service, we work together to evaluate how your existing policies impact marginalized groups and identify opportunities to make them more inclusive and equitable. I collaborate closely with your leadership team to develop policies that not only promote fairness but actively dismantle systemic barriers, support a culture of care, and prioritize long-term inclusivity. This service helps organizations integrate DEI values into their core operations and daily practices, fostering an environment where everyone can thrive.
Workplace Climate Surveys & Feedback Collection. Understanding the experiences of your employees or community members is essential to creating a truly inclusive environment. Through tailored workplace climate surveys and feedback collection, I help organizations gather critical insights into their DEI efforts and overall work environment. These surveys are designed to offer employees a safe and anonymous platform to share their thoughts on inclusivity, cultural sensitivity, systemic barriers, and overall workplace climate. The collected feedback is analyzed and translated into actionable recommendations that help ensure your organization is actively fostering a culture of equity, respect, and belonging.
DEI Policy Review & Recommendations. This service involves a thorough review of your organization’s existing DEI-related policies. I assess the inclusivity of your policies, looking for any gaps or areas where they may unintentionally perpetuate inequities. Based on this review, I provide practical recommendations for revising policies to promote inclusivity and equity across all levels of the organization. Whether it’s updating hiring practices, refining accommodation procedures, or improving employee benefits, this service ensures your policies reflect your commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Data Analysis & Reporting for DEI Initiatives. Effective DEI work is driven by data. I assist organizations in analyzing the results of their DEI efforts, whether from surveys, performance metrics, or other sources. Through data analysis, I help you uncover trends, gaps, and areas of success in your diversity and inclusion initiatives. I provide comprehensive reports that break down key findings, helping you understand where your efforts are succeeding and where adjustments are needed. This service supports data-driven decision-making, ensuring that your DEI strategies are impactful and aligned with your long-term goals.
Why It Matters
Diversity, equity, and inclusion are not just aspirational concepts—they are the foundation for a thriving, successful organization. When you actively address systemic barriers, challenge inequality, and foster a truly inclusive environment, you do more than improve your workplace culture. You create a space where everyone—regardless of their background or identity—feels valued and empowered to contribute. True DEI work goes beyond ticking boxes; it is about breaking down longstanding inequities and creating meaningful opportunities for those who have historically been marginalized. The ripple effect of inclusive practices transforms lives, enhances employee engagement, and fosters innovation. Organizations that prioritize DEI build trust, loyalty, and resilience—creating not just better workplaces, but stronger, more adaptive businesses. By partnering with me, we can ensure that your organization does more than meet industry standards—we can help set them. Together, we’ll cultivate a culture of equity, respect, and belonging, making your organization a leader in creating spaces where every individual is empowered to grow and succeed.
