Committee for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
TAA’s Committee for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (CDEI) was established in 2020 to advise and provide recommendations to the TAA Council on matters affecting representation, opportunities, academic authoring in general and equitable treatment of all TAA members with respect to their TAA benefits.
Formed from Presidential appointees, the Committee advises and provides recommendations to Council on matters affecting representation, opportunities, academic authoring in general, and equitable treatment of all TAA members with respect to their TAA benefits. The Committee works to increase diversity, equity, and inclusion in the organization at all levels as well as provide information and develop resources that aid members in their own professional endeavors.
The Committee will communicate directly with Council or the membership as we have relevant items to share with you. This space will be the focal point for archiving the work of TAA and the CDEI as we organize and implement actions. This is ongoing, long-term work, so we hope you will check the space from time to time for new developments.
