Opportunities for Individuals from Diverse Backgrounds at the National Level
At the national level, three seats on the Board of Directors are designated for individuals representing ethnic and multicultural concerns. In addition, the Diversity Standing Committee advises the Board on diversity issues. Its duties include: advise the Board on diversity and equity issues and trends, recommend strategies for greater inclusivity of diverse groups throughout the Council's membership, leadership, and unit programs/activities; advise the Board on ways to enhance professional practice to serve children and youth with exceptionalities from diverse backgrounds through scientifically based research; and suggest methods to attract, mentor, and support individuals from diverse backgrounds to enter, remain, and advance within the profession.
